Comparison Between Bandage Contact Lens and Pressure Patching for The Erosion Area and Pain Scale in Corneal Erosion Patients

Phase 3

Completed

• Conditions: Erosion; Cornea, Traumatic

• Registration Number: NCT01809483
• Lead Sponsor: Udayana University

Brief Summary

This research aims to compare between bandage contact lens and pressure patching in reducing size of erosion area and pain scale in corneal erosion patients as well as its complications.

Detailed Description

This is a randomized open-label clinical trial in patients with mechanical corneal erosion. Subjects were selected to use bandage contact lens (Senofilcon A) or pressure patching. All subjects received combination of Polymyxin B, Neomycin, and Gramicidin eye drops and 0,5% Tropicamide eye drops. Evaluation was done 24 hours after treatment
