NCT06232616Enrolling by invitation
Eye surgery with steroid implant for membrane-related swelling

This study tests combining vitrectomy (surgery to remove the membrane from the retina) with a dexamethasone implant (a tiny steroid that is placed inside the eye to reduce swelling) for people with a specific type of eye membrane and fluid buildup in the center of the retina.

Check how safe DEXYCU is after childhood cataract surgery

This trial studies whether DEXYCU is safe to use to reduce eye inflammation after cataract surgery in children. It aims to see if the medicine’s side effects are acceptable and whether it helps during normal recovery.

Steroid plus anti-VEGF vs. anti-VEGF alone for diabetic macular edema

This trial tests if combining a steroid implant (dexamethasone) with an anti-VEGF injection (aflibercept) works better than aflibercept alone for people with diabetic macular edema caused by inflammation. It aims to find the best first treatment for improving vision and reducing swelling.

Compare fluocinolone and dexamethasone implants for resistant eye swelling

This trial looks at which long-acting steroid implant works better for diabetic macular swelling that did not improve enough with past treatments. It may help patients by testing a treatment option aimed at improving vision when other eye injections have not worked well.

Comparing eye injections for diabetic macular edema

This study compares two different eye injection treatments for diabetic macular edema (DME)—a condition where fluid builds up in the center of the retina, blurring vision. Researchers want to see how certain measures in the blood and in eye scans relate to how well each treatment works.

Drug-delivering contact lens for recurrent macular swelling

This study tests a special contact lens that slowly delivers anti-inflammatory/steroid medicine to the back of the eye. It aims to treat cystoid macular edema that keeps coming back and may improve vision for people who respond to steroid treatment.
