Recruiting studies
- NCT05039684Recruiting
Testing eye-surface inflammation in glaucoma or high eye pressure
This study measures inflammation markers on the eye surface in people with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who use certain glaucoma drops. The results may help doctors understand how these drops affect the eye and inflammation.
ValladolidAges 18–99 - NCT07217678RecruitingPhase 4
Eye drops and surface damage in glaucoma treatment
This study looks at how certain glaucoma eye drops affect the surface of your eye. It tests a new implant that may reduce damage and improve comfort.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06448468Recruiting
Eye microbes in dry eye after LASIK
This study looks at the bacteria and other microbes on the eye's surface in people who develop dry eye after LASIK surgery. It aims to understand how these microbes change and may help improve future treatments for dry eye after LASIK.
Nanchang, JiangxiAges 18–45 - NCT06638424Recruiting
Cataract surgery effects on eyes in diabetic patients
This study looks at how cataract surgery affects the surface of the eye in people with diabetes. Researchers want to see if the surgery causes changes, so they can better understand and care for diabetic patients.
StrasbourgAges 18 years+ - NCT07579130Recruiting
Measuring tear film thickness in dry eye disease
This study compares different ways of measuring the tear film layer (the oily coating on your eye) in people with dry eye disease. Understanding these measurements better may help doctors diagnose and treat dry eye more effectively.
Bloomington, IndianaAges 18–100 - NCT07606625RecruitingPhase 4
Nasal spray for dry eye disease and tear film stability
This study tests whether a nasal spray can improve dry eye symptoms and tear production in people with mild to moderate meibomian gland dysfunction (a common cause of dry eye). You'll use the spray daily while the research team monitors your eye health and comfort over several weeks.
Berkeley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03713268Recruiting
Using a scan to guide eye surgery in real time
This trial tests whether a special eye scan (OCT) can help guide eye surgery during the operation. It may improve how surgeons see and target the exact eye structures they need to treat.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 4 weeks+ - NCT06898853Recruiting
Eye drops for dry eye: A 12-week study
This trial tests whether an anti-inflammatory eye drop (ciclosporin A) can help dry eyes by changing immune cells on the eye's surface. It lasts 12 weeks and may be an option for people with moderate to severe dry eye.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT03358979Recruiting
3D eye-surface testing for severe dry eye
This study looks at how a specific eye-surface marker (EMMPRIN) changes on the surface cells in people with severe dry eye. It may help researchers understand disease severity and how new treatments could work for severe symptoms.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ocular surface disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 33 recruiting ocular surface disease 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 ocular surface disease 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 ocular surface disease 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.
