Telemedicine Follow-up for Routine, Low-Risk Oculoplastic Surgery

The investigators propose utilizing a simple telemedical protocol to allow patients to substitute the first post-operative visit with a remote survey that includes essential post-operative history, vision measurement, and photographs, all of which can be provided using a personal computer, tablet, or smart phone. The investigators have selected for this purpose a subset of oculoplastic procedures involving the eyelid and lacrimal system that have well-reported low rates of serious complications, since high-risk procedures will likely always require close, in-person care. The investigators hypothesize that telemedicine follow-up for the first post-operative week after low-risk oculoplastic surgery will decrease the time burden on patients without compromising their satisfaction or increase the risk of late post-operative complications.

A Study in Chinese Patients With Acquired Blepharoptosis

This is a Phase III Study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of STN1013800 Ophthalmic Solution in Chinese Patients with Acquired Blepharoptosis. At present, there are no medicines for the treatment of acquired blepharoptosis in China. Therefore, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 0.1% STN1013800 ophthalmic solution, Vehicle (Placebo) are designed. For the screening period, 3-7 days were set to confirm the subjects and judge their qualification. Dosage and administration were based on prior clinical trial results approved at 0.1% once daily for 42 days treatment.

A Feedback-enabled Magnetic Device for Temporary Management of Blepharoptosis

To develop a feedback-enabled magnetic device for management of blepharoptosis and evaluate its efficacy and safety, including the gain of palpebral fissure height, visual field obstruction, blurred vision, foreign body sensation over the cornea, burning or hot sensation over facial skin, and erythema or pruritus over the eyelid, by performing a human trial on patients with blepharoptosis.
