Trial summary

Dry eye syndrome is a benign situation however its impact on patient's quality of live and on health system is not trivial. One problem is the lack of correlation between patient's symptoms and physical sign observed on slit lamp examination. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Interest of Eye Movement Measurements in the Comprehension of Dry Eyes Symptoms (BOSO)

Dry eye syndrome is a benign situation however its impact on patient's quality of live and on health system is not trivial. One problem is the lack of correlation between patient's symptoms and physical sign observed on slit lamp examination. Eye blinking is a parameter of increased interest in this pathology particularly its frequency. To date no treatment of dry eye syndrome has a proven impact on eye blinking frequency. However recording of blinks has mostly been performed on short duration (3 to 5 minutes) and the distribution of intervals between 2 blinks is not gaussian but exponential. In this study, it is proposed to use modern eye-movement recorder to measure the blink frequency on longer duration (12 minutes) while reading on a screen computer and during a face-to-face interview before and after treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction responsible of moderate to severe dry eye syndrome.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Infrared oculographyDevice

    The infrared oculography provides binocular recordings and allows simultaneous measurement of horizontal and vertical eye movements.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Dry Eye Syndromes and Blinking, run by Fondation Ophtalmologique Adolphe de Rothschild at 1 site in France.

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

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Dec 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?

duration between 2 blinks (time frame: 2 months after treatment). 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 11 Dec 2019.
