Recruiting studies
- NCT06060041Recruiting
Study of the IC-8 Apthera lens after cataract surgery
This study is for people who already have an IC-8 Apthera lens in one eye and need treatment for clouding on the lens capsule (posterior capsule opacification). It evaluates how well this lens works over time.
Dothan, AlabamaAges 22 years+ - NCT06056154Enrolling by invitation
Testing a new artificial lens for cataract surgery
This trial tests a new type of artificial lens (called Asqelio Monofocal) for people having cataract surgery. The lens is designed to give clear distance vision without glasses.
AlicanteAges 22 years+ - NCT05822089Recruiting
Comparing two cataract lens types in the same person
This study compares two different cataract (intraocular) lens options in each eye of the same person. It aims to see which lens gives better distance vision after standard cataract surgery.
ViennaAges 50–100 - NCT05587205RecruitingPhase 1
Tested eye drops for safety in cataract patients with low cornea cells
This Phase 1 study tests how safe and tolerable an investigational treatment (EO2002) is in adults having cataract surgery. It also looks at whether the treatment can be given without causing harmful effects in people with reduced cornea cell counts.
Mexico City, Mexico CityAges 18 years+ - NCT04553523Recruiting
Hydrus microstent study for open-angle glaucoma with cataracts
This study enrolls people who have cataracts and primary open-angle glaucoma that is being treated with eye drops. It will look at how well the Hydrus microstent works after approval, especially for lowering eye pressure safely.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 45 years+ - NCT01654159Enrolling by invitation
Study of vision and lens optics during cataract surgery
This study looks at how well your vision works and how different cataract surgery lens choices perform. It may help researchers better understand what affects sight after cataract surgery.
Birmingham, West MidlandsAges 40–85

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for cataract?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 150 recruiting cataract studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a cataract trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a cataract trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
