Clinical trials

The purpose of this study will be to see if Xdemvy (lotilaner ophthalmic solution) 0.25% has a positive impact on ocular surface symptoms and PROSE device functionality and performance. The investigators hypothesize the use of Xdemvy in subjects utilizing PROSE treatment will be well tolerated and that the reduction in Demodex mite load on the eyelid margin will result in reduced ocular surface symptoms and improved PROSE tolerance and functionality.

The goal of this prospective clinical trial is to evaluate the effect that prosthetic replacement of the ocular surface ecosystem (PROSE, BostonSight, Needham MA) treatment may have on mental health, particularly affective mood disorders. Correlation between changes in mental health and ocular symptom improvement and/or visual function improvement will be evaluated.
