AI-Based Screening for Glaucoma

Boston, Massachusetts
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a new screening approach including an artificial intelligence algorithm that analyzes fundus photographs, measurement of eye pressure and visual field testing works to screen for glaucoma. Participants will: Have an image of their fundus (back of the eye) taken as part of their diabetic eye screening Have a measurement of their eye pressure If needed, have a test of their side vision using a headset

Nanodropper for Glaucoma

Boston, Massachusetts
Glaucoma medications are vital to disease management and prevention of further loss of vision as over time glaucoma will lead to irreversible blindness. The average size of a glaucoma medication bottle is around 10cc and these medications when used 2-3 times daily are expected to last patients an entire month. The investigators found that at Boston Medical Center (BMC) a majority of Yawkey Eye Clinic patients are unable to deliver the drops into their eyes due to poor vision or difficulty squeezing drop bottles. These patients also often deliver more than a necessary amount leading to premature completion of the bottle. However, because the cost benefit ratio of these drop aids is unclear, they are not routinely offered to the patients. Although the efficacy of these drop aids has not been well studied, if effective, the cost of these drop aids would more than pay themselves by improving medication compliance and visual function of the patients. This study aims to determine the efficacy of the Nanodropper in the BMC Yawkey Eye Clinic patient population.

Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty for Glaucoma

Boston, Massachusetts
The goal of this study is to understand if SLT performed at low energy is as effective as SLT performed at standard energy, and also to see if repeating SLT at low energy once a year will prevent or delay the need for daily eye drop medications better than waiting for SLT to wear off before repeating it.

Glaucoma Drainage Techniques for Glaucoma

Boston, Massachusetts
Glaucoma Drainage Device and Endothelial Cell Loss Compare Trial (DECLARE) is a multi-center, outcome-masked, randomized clinical trial. The purpose of this study is to compare glaucoma drainage device implantation in the anterior chamber (front part of the eye) and sulcus (small space between iris and front chamber of the eye) in efforts to minimize cell loss in the eye.

Hydrus Microstent vs Goniotomy for Glaucoma

Boston, Massachusetts
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the comparative efficacy and safety of Hydrus Microstent, incisional goniotomy, and excisional goniotomy when combined with cataract surgery in patients with mild and moderate open-angle glaucoma. The main questions it aims to answer are: * How do the intraocular pressure lowering effects of these three microinvasive glaucoma surgeries compare? * How do the safety profiles of these three microinvasive glaucoma surgeries compare? Participants will be randomized to one of these three microinvasive glaucoma surgeries in combination with cataract surgery.

XEN45 Gel Stent for Open-Angle Glaucoma

Boston, Massachusetts
Glaucoma is the second most common cause of blindness in the world, second only to cataracts. This study will assess how safe and effective a glaucoma gel stent is when implanted using the ab externo approach. Adverse events and intraocular pressure will be assessed. XEN45 is an approved device for the treatment of glaucoma implanted using the ab interno approach (inside the eye). XEN45 implanted using the ab externo approach (outside the eye) is being studied in this study. Approximately 65 participants aged 45 years or older with open-angle glaucoma will be enrolled in this study at approximately 22 sites in the United States. All participants will receive XEN45 implanted using the ab externo approach on Day 1 and will be followed for 12 months. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The safety and effect of the gel stent on your glaucoma will be checked by medical assessments and eye examinations.

NCX 470 for Glaucoma

Boston, Massachusetts
This trial is testing NCX 470 eye drops to see if they can safely and effectively lower eye pressure in people with high eye pressure or glaucoma. The goal is to protect their vision by reducing the pressure inside their eyes. NCX 470 is a nitric oxide (NO)-donating bimatoprost with clinically demonstrated pressure-lowering effects.

Bimatoprost SR for Glaucoma

Boston, Massachusetts
This trial tests a long-lasting eye medication called Bimatoprost SR. It is for people with certain eye conditions who can't use regular eye drops effectively. The medication works by helping fluid drain from the eye, reducing pressure. Bimatoprost has been widely used for glaucoma management, typically delivered via eye drops, but newer methods like sustained-release implants are being explored to improve efficiency.

Long-term Safety and Efficacy of Bimatoprost SR for Glaucoma

Winchester, Massachusetts
This study will evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of Bimatoprost Sustained Release (SR) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who completed 1 of the 4 Phase 3 Bimatoprost SR studies (192024-091, -092, -093, or -095) and received Bimatoprost SR or who received commercial DURYSTA (Bimatoprost SR) in the open-label Phase 4 ARGOS study (MED-MA-EYE-0648) and completed (or exited early from) the study.

Occupational Therapy for Age-Related Macular Degeneration

Worcester, Massachusetts
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if education about additional task lighting, enhanced contrast, enlarged print instructions, smart apps and organizational strategies will improve medication management skills. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does additional task lighting, enhanced contrast, enlarged print instructions, smart apps and organizational strategies improve medication management skills, reduce errors and improve functional use of remaining vision for this task? Participants will: Oftentimes, the client is unaware of these strategies which may improve occupational performance during a valued activity. Clients with AMD, DR or Glaucoma who choose to receive the one hour OT service will be provided with 1:1 education regarding the devices and strategies that may improve their ability to perform medication management skills.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."

ADHD PatientAge: 31

"I've tried several different SSRIs over the past 23 years with no luck. Some of these new treatments seem interesting... haven't tried anything like them before. I really hope that one could work."

ZS
Depression PatientAge: 51

"My orthopedist recommended a half replacement of my right knee. I have had both hips replaced. Currently have arthritis in knee, shoulder, and thumb. I want to avoid surgery, and I'm open-minded about trying a trial before using surgery as a last resort."

HZ

"As a healthy volunteer, I like to participate in as many trials as I'm able to. It's a good way to help research and earn money."

IZ
Healthy Volunteer PatientAge: 38

"I changed my diet in 2020 and I’ve lost 95 pounds from my highest weight (283). I am 5’3”, female, and now 188. I still have a 33 BMI. I've been doing research on alternative approaches to continue my progress, which brought me here to consider clinical trials."
