NCT03123614
Corneal haze, in which the cornea becomes cloudy, is a well-known and a potentially vision-threatening postoperative complication of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). Topical ophthalmic corticosteroids are routinely prescribed by most surgeons postoperatively to help prevent this complication. Goals of topical steroids use after PRK include effective modulation of the healing response to prevent corneal haze while at the same time minimizing side effects, such as intraocular pressure elevation or cataract formation. Loteprednol etabonate is a corticosteroid that exerts its therapeutic effects and is then quickly changed into inactive metabolites. This relatively fast metabolism of loteprednol gives it a lower side effect profile than other steroids, including a smaller effect on intraocular pressure. In the ophthalmic literature, there is currently no consensus on a standard regimen or which type of corticosteroid should be used after PRK. Investigators are conducting a prospective, randomized trial to compare the incidence of intraocular pressure rise and visually significant postoperative corneal haze after PRK with the use of loteprednol 0.5% gel compared to the use of earlier generation steroids, prednisolone acetate 1% suspension and fluorometholone 0.1% suspension.
NCT01000636
The aim of this study is to determine possible molecular changes on large scale gene expression profiling after treatment with Metvix photodynamic therapy (PDT) of actinic keratoses (AK) and cancerised field in renal transplant recipients.
NCT04259268
In this prospective and paired study, the investigators evaluate whether the preoperative information recorded through a web based questionnaire together with a virtual non face to face patient assessment based on the information recorded by the questionnaire and the electronic records of patients is of a comparable quality to that obtained with the traditional outpatient interview.
