About this study

Direct Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty (DSLT) is an emerging therapeutic technology to treat glaucoma. DSLT was previously tested in 2 clinical trials and demonstrated promising safety and efficacy results in reducing the patient's intra ocular pressure.

Experience gained in the previous clinical studies indicates that a full exposure of the limbal area may be a challenge in patients with narrow palpebral fissures, narrow or floppy eyelids, and patients with deep-set eyes.

Read the detailed description

The DSLT procedure is carried out in the doctor's office while the patient sits in front of the DSLT device (termed the "Eagle" device) for couple of minutes.

In this procedure, 120 laser applications are performed around the full circumference of the ocular limbus, after the system automatically recognizes the limbal target area. It is therefore essential that a full exposure of 3600 limbal area will be achieved, and this is done by placing an eye lid retractor (speculum) in the treated eye at the beginning of the procedure.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the compatibility of different types of lid retractors. The lid retractors will be tested in adult volunteers visiting the study eye clinic for any reason.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lid retractor placement in people with OAG - Open-Angle Glaucoma, run by BelkinVision at 1 site in Georgia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Georgia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Limbus Exposure (time frame: Baseline). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jan 2023.
