Recruiting studies in Ohio
- NCT04598932Enrolling by invitation
Eye pressure and tissue testing for cornea health
This study uses a special, noninvasive microscope technique to study how your cornea tissue behaves. It may help doctors better understand keratoconus and corneal changes after common eye procedures.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–60 - NCT05314738RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Corneal cross-linking trial for keratoconus eye
This trial tests how safe and effective corneal cross-linking is for people with keratoconus, a condition that changes the shape of the clear front surface of the eye. If you qualify, the study will also require several follow-up visits to check your eye health over time.
Westerville, OhioAges 18–55 - NCT07400952RecruitingPhase 2
Testing GLK-221 Eye Drops for Keratoconus
This study tests an eye drop called GLK-221 for people with keratoconus, a condition where the clear front of the eye bulges. The goal is to see if the drops can safely help improve the condition compared to a placebo (an inactive solution).
Westerville, OhioAges 18–55 - NCT07629557RecruitingPhase 4
Same-Day Corneal Cross-Linking for Keratoconus in Both Eyes
This study tests a same-day procedure that strengthens the cornea (the clear front part of the eye) in both eyes using a special light treatment, called cross-linking. It may help slow or stop the progression of keratoconus, a condition where the cornea becomes cone-shaped and causes blurry vision.
Westerville, OhioAges 13 years+ - NCT03030755Recruiting
Imaging test and personalized modeling for keratoconus
This trial uses special eye imaging to measure how your cornea (the eye’s clear front surface) changes, and then builds a personalized model for you. It may help doctors plan safer, more tailored treatment for keratoconus—especially if you’re considering LASIK.

What taking part in a keratoconus study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there keratoconus clinical trials in Ohio?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 5 recruiting keratoconus studies with a site in Ohio, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a keratoconus study in Ohio?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Ohio to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Ohio, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a keratoconus trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
