The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance profile of a modified surgical procedure and custom delivery devices and also to assess the effects on visual acuity of a single subretinal administration of CNTO 2476.
wide-field imaging for early detection of NPDR
The purpose of this study is to determine if a smaller needle size reduces discomfort suffered by patients both during and following intravitreal injections. It is the investigators belief that using a smaller size needle will help patients to be less fearful of intravitreal injections and more amenable to treatment. This study will also evaluate the effect of needle size on post injection intraocular pressure, to see if smaller needles may reduce wound leak and increase the intraocular pressure following injection.
The investigators hypothesize that subject eyes injected with the smaller size needle will result in greater patient comfort both during and after their injection as compared to the eye injected with the larger needle. The investigators objective is to reduce any discomfort felt by patients who receive intravitreal injections. The investigators also hypothesize that the smaller needle will result in higher post injection pressures, and another objective is to determine if this can affect patient comfort and increase the risk of glaucomatous optic nerve damage.
Clinical Retina research studies often collect aqueous samples in hopes of estimating levels of drug or cytokines in the vitreous. Little is known about how well vitreous and aqueous correlate. This study will collect vitreous and aqueous samples at the same time to evaluate and compare drug and cytokine levels.
The overall objective of this study is to evaluate the molecular concentration of growth factors, cytokines and chemokines in human aqueous humor and vitreous samples collected from individuals undergoing pars plana vitrectomy for tractional retinal detachment secondary to proliferative diabetic retinopathy, exudative or tractional retinal detachment secondary to macular degeneration, macular hole or neovascular glaucoma.

The study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of suprachoroidally administered triamcinolone acetonide, CLS-TA, in subjects with macular edema associated with non-infectious uveitis.
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravitreal administration of Fovista® administered in combination with Lucentis® compared to Lucentis® monotherapy in subjects with subfoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravitreal (IVT) administration of DE-120 in subjects with treatment-naive active subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
This is a Phase II clinical study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of three different formulations of ranibizumab delivered via the Ranibizumab Port Delivery System (RPDS) implant compared with the standard of care (SOC) intravitreal (ITV) injections of ranibizumab, in participants with subfoveal neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
