Study of Eylea for preterm babies with retinopathy of prematurity in the UK
This study collects information on how the medicine Eylea is given to preterm babies with retinopathy of prematurity (an eye problem in premature infants) using a special dosing device. The goal is to see how the treatment works in everyday hospital care.
Multiple LocationsAges Up to 1 year - NCT06319872RecruitingPhase 1
Study of disulfiram for vision in retinal degeneration
This trial tests whether disulfiram, a drug used for alcohol use disorder, can improve vision in people with retinal degeneration. You must have an alcohol use diagnosis and agree to avoid alcohol for 6 months.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06455384Recruiting
Studying a digital tool for genetic testing services
This trial tests a new online tool called the Genetics Navigator, which helps people access genetic testing services more easily. If you or your child have been referred for genetic testing at Mount Sinai Hospital or SickKids in Toronto, this study may help you manage the process online.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07696130Recruiting
Trifocal lens implant study for cataract or presbyopia
This study tests a new type of trifocal lens implant to see how well it improves vision at all distances after cataract or lens replacement surgery. It may help you become less dependent on glasses.
