What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This is a prospective, randomized, controlled, open-label, single-site investigator-initiated clinical trial. A total of 120 participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio either to receive one drop of apraclonidine 1% ophthalmic solution (Iopidine) approximately 20-30 minutes before a clinically indicated intravitreal injection of Eylea HD or Syfovre, or to a control group that will receive no pre-injection study medication.

The intravitreal injection is part of the participant's routine clinical care. The research-specific intervention for participants assigned to the Iopidine group is administration of Iopidine. Participants assigned to the control group will receive no pre-injection study medication. Both groups will undergo post-injection IOP assessments at 5, 15, and 30 minutes post-injection and transient-vision-loss assessments.

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

This trial is for people who need eye injections as part of their treatment for conditions like glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, or retinal vein occlusion. Participants must be eligible to receive these injections and meet the study's safety requirements.

Inclusion Criteria

What Are the Treatments Tested in This Trial?

Interventions

  • Apraclonidine 1% ophthalmic solution

Trial Overview

The study tests if using one drop of Iopidine (apraclonidine 1%) before an eye injection can help prevent a rise in eye pressure afterward. Half the participants get Iopidine before their usual injection; the other half do not.
