Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is being conducted to determine whether the use of bandage contact lens after ptosis surgery provides any benefits for the patient or is unnecessary.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is being conducted to determine whether the use of bandage contact lens after ptosis surgery provides any benefits for the patient or is unnecessary. The investigators hope to show through questionnaires based on the patient's experience after their surgery to see if the bandage contact lens has provided any benefit for the patient. This is a randomized control trial in which patients undergoing bilateral ptosis surgery (Fasanella servat procedure) will have one of their eyes randomized to receive a bandage contact lens after surgery while the other eye will not receive anything.In this randomized control trial, patients requiring surgery with bilateral ptosis will have one eye randomized to receive a bandage contact lens whereas the other eye will not after their surgery. Follow up will occur in one week where the outcomes will be obtained through questionnaires.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

The investigators will place a contact lens on both eyes and immediately take it off from one (this will be the sham lens eye). Randomization of the lens placement will be determined by a flip of a coin (heads - keep lens on right eye. Tails - keep lens on left eye). Investigator will randomly generate for each patient whether the contact lens will be kept on right or left eye, sham contact lens will be placed on other eye, placing it and immediately removing it. Therefore, the patient will not know which eye has a lens.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Bandage contact lens

Placing a bandage contact lens in one eye.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Bandage contact lens

Intervention Type DEVICE

Bandage contact lens

Sham contact lens (immediate removal)

Sham contact lens will be placed on other eye, placing it and immediately removing it so patient does not know which eye will have a bandage contact lens.
