About this study

Official title: Correlation Between Pupil Size and Ocular Signs in Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome (PEX): a Contralateral Eye Study.

To study possible correlation between the size of the pupil in both room light and after dilation between both eyes in bilateral pseudoexfoliation with Intraocular pressure, lens clarity and stability, Optic disc , Visual changes and glaucoma changes by optical coherence tomography

Read the detailed description

For each patient. Full preoperative ophthalmological assessment will be done using slit lamp , size of the pupil in regular room light (usually around 2000 Lux) and post dilation with tropicamide 1%. baseline IOP measurement using Goldmann applanation tonometer, UCDVA (Uncorrected Distance Visual Acuity)and CDVA (Corrected Distance visual acuity), lens opacification or clarity, stability or subluxation. corneal endothelial cell count. Fundus examination using 90 D or 78D lenses, Humphrey visual field (24-2) analysis and optical coherence tomography on retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell complex.(GCC)

What participants receive

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

  • , Humphrey visual field (24-2) analysis and optical coherence tomography on retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell complex.(GCC)Diagnostic test

    , Humphrey visual field (24-2) analysis and optical coherence tomography on retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell complex.(GCC)

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. correlation between pupil size and severity of Pseudoexfoliation

    in each eye of the same patient we study correlation between pupil size with ntraocular pressure, lens status, corneal endothelial count and glaucomatous damage represented by (optic disc changes (cup to disc ratio) and OCT changes (RNFL and GCC)

    Measured: 2-3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome and Pseudoexfoliation Glaucoma in Both Eyes, run by Assiut University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 12 Apr 2022. 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 Egypt. 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?

correlation between pupil size and severity of Pseudoexfoliation (time frame: 2-3 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05113121, which also lists 4 linked publications.

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 12 Apr 2022.
