Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT07224542Enrolling by invitation
Smart contact lenses to monitor glaucoma
This study tests a smart contact lens that may help monitor glaucoma by measuring eye pressure. It is looking for people with glaucoma (who already use eye-drop medicine) and healthy adults without glaucoma to see if the lens works well over time.
Bloomington, IndianaAges 22 years+ - NCT07206628Recruiting
Glaucoma eye drop adherence with easygrip bottle
This study looks at how well people stick to their glaucoma eye drop routine when using a special bottle called EASYGRIP®. If you use this type of bottle for your glaucoma drops, this study may help doctors understand how to make treatment easier.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT07209410RecruitingPhase 4
Eye drops to reduce redness from glaucoma treatment
This trial tests if adding brimonidine eye drops can reduce eye redness caused by the glaucoma drops you are currently taking. It may help if you have been using netarsudil/latanoprost drops and have noticed redness.
Kansas City, MissouriAges 18–65 - NCT07163676Recruiting
Can exercise help glaucoma in older adults?

Giza, DokkiAges 65–75 - NCT07147647Recruiting
Laser treatment for lowering eye pressure in Black patients with glaucoma
This trial tests a laser procedure called DSLT to reduce eye pressure in Black patients with mild to moderate open-angle glaucoma. It aims to see if this treatment works well as a first step before using eye drops.
Elkridge, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07152132Recruiting
Comparing two glaucoma surgeries for people who had cataract surgery
This trial studies a new tube-shunt surgery (SCTSC) against the standard trabeculectomy for people with open-angle glaucoma that is not controlled by eye drops. It is only for people who have already had cataract surgery.
MinyaAges 40 years+ - NCT07119580Recruiting
Glaucoma, eye surface health, and tear proteins
This study looks at how glaucoma and its treatments affect the surface of the eye and proteins in tears. It may help find better ways to manage eye health in people with glaucoma.
HsinchuAges 18 years+ - NCT07063537Recruiting
Virtual reality eye test for glaucoma patients
This trial tests whether a virtual reality device can accurately measure your field of vision compared to standard tests. If you have primary open-angle glaucoma and can perform a visual field test, you may be able to participate.
Halifax, Nova ScotiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07036510RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Safety and effectiveness of a timolol eye implant for glaucoma patients having cataract surgery
This trial tests a sustained-release implant that delivers timolol, a medicine to lower eye pressure, for people with glaucoma or high eye pressure who are also having cataract surgery. The implant is placed during surgery and may provide long-term pressure control without daily eye drops.
Panama CityAges 40 years+ - NCT07009236Recruiting
MINIject S+ for open angle glaucoma
This trial tests a tiny implant called MINIject S+ to lower eye pressure in people with open angle glaucoma that isn't well controlled with eye drops. It may be done alone or with cataract surgery.
Santa Rosa de CopánAges 20 years+ - NCT07003685Enrolling by invitation
Glaucoma drainage device for hard-to-treat glaucoma
This study tests a posterior chamber drainage device for people with glaucoma that is not controlled by eye drops, especially those who have already had cataract surgery. It aims to help lower eye pressure safely and prevent further vision loss.
Ho Chi Minh City, Ho Chi MinhAges 18 years+ - NCT07599241Recruiting
Exercise Program for Older Women With Thyroid, Eye, and Liver Conditions
This study tests whether a physical activity program can help older women manage three common conditions together: an underactive thyroid, high eye pressure (glaucoma), and fatty liver disease. Researchers want to see if exercise improves symptoms and overall health when addressing multiple conditions at once.
Dokki, Giza GovernorateAges 65–75 - NCT06993597Recruiting
Eye stiffness study in glaucoma patients using a special camera
This study uses a special camera (Brillouin microscopy) to measure how stiff your cornea is. It compares people with different types of glaucoma to those without glaucoma, helping researchers understand the link between corneal stiffness and eye pressure.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06991270Recruiting
Glaucoma surgery study for people with cataracts
This trial tests a surgical system for people with mild to moderate open-angle glaucoma. It may be an option if you are having cataract surgery or have already had it, and your eye pressure is not well controlled with medications.
Panama CityAges 45 years+ - NCT06991712RecruitingPhase 2
NAD supplements for nerve health in glaucoma
This trial tests whether NAD precursor supplements can improve nerve health and vision in people with glaucoma. If you have glaucoma with mild to moderate vision loss, this study may help understand if these supplements could protect your optic nerve.
Wong Chuk HangAges 18 years+ - NCT06979752Recruiting
Testing a new cannula for glaucoma-cataract surgery
This trial tests whether a special cannula can help protect the eye during combined surgery for pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (a type of glaucoma with flaky deposits) and cataracts. It may offer better results than standard irrigation.
AvranchesAges 18 years+ - NCT06963684Recruiting
Glaucoma laser stability and sustainability study
This study tests whether a laser treatment helps keep eye pressure stable in people with early glaucoma or high eye pressure who have not used any eye drops or medications before. It may be a good option if you are looking for a treatment that doesn't require daily eye drops.
Coon Rapids, MinnesotaAges 40 years+ - NCT06952153Recruiting
Comparing two surgeries for glaucoma with cataract
This trial compares two types of eye surgery—one that removes the cataract and opens blocked drainage channels, and another that creates a new drainage pathway. It aims to find which works better for people with both glaucoma and cataracts.
Ho Chi Minh CityAges 40 years+ - NCT06933836Recruiting
DSLT laser for newly diagnosed open-angle glaucoma
This trial tests a laser treatment called DSLT in people recently diagnosed with open-angle glaucoma who have never had any other glaucoma treatment. It aims to see how well the laser lowers eye pressure.
Mesa, ArizonaAges 30 years+ - NCT06934577Recruiting
Glaucoma screening and eye health study via telemedicine
This study tests if telemedicine can help find glaucoma and other eye problems early. It may help people who speak one of several languages and want to check their eye health from home.
Flint, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT06865235Recruiting
Glaucoma and cataract surgery with a new device

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for glaucoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 201 recruiting glaucoma 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 glaucoma 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 glaucoma 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.
