Recruiting studies
- NCT03680794Recruiting
Testing a blood and eye-fluid marker in retinal disease
This study looks at a specific lab marker (sCD160) in blood and eye fluids to see how it relates to poor blood flow in the retina. You may be asked for samples taken during eye surgery to help doctors understand the disease better.

Testing an eye imaging drug during retinal blood-vessel photos
This early safety study tests how well and how safely an investigational dye (MB-102) works during a special eye imaging test of retinal and choroidal blood vessels. It compares it to the commonly used fluorescein dye and may help doctors refine future eye imaging approaches.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT04187443RecruitingPhase 1
Drug MS-553 for diabetic eye swelling with reduced vision
This Phase 1 trial tests MS-553 to see how it works and how safely it can be given to people with diabetic retinopathy causing central macular swelling (macular edema). You may be considered if your vision and eye scan results match, and if you can follow frequent study visits.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT04240652Recruiting
Diabetes eye screening and prevention program for eye disease
This program aims to screen people for diabetic eye problems early and help prevent vision loss over time. It may help you if you have type 2 diabetes (or you’ve been invited as a diabetes/non-diabetes participant) and can safely take part in the study activities.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT04547439RecruitingPhase 2
Melatonin for diabetic eye disease and better sleep
This Phase 2 study tests whether melatonin can improve sleep and possibly outcomes related to diabetic retinopathy (damage to the retina from diabetes). It also checks whether it affects related symptoms while keeping people safe.

Registry for babies with retinopathy of prematurity
This study is a European registry that collects medical information (stored electronically) about babies who have retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) severe enough to need treatment. It may help doctors understand outcomes and improve care by tracking real-world results.
SalzburgAges Any age - NCT04995341Recruiting
School-age follow-up study for premature babies’ eye health
This study looks at eye structure in children who were in an earlier premature-baby eye study and are now around 4.5–5 years old. It may help researchers better understand how eye disease in prematurity develops and how to monitor it.
Durham, North CarolinaAges Any age - NCT06067958RecruitingPhase 3
Nose spray medicine for pain during eye exams in preemies
This study tests a nose spray medicine (dexmedetomidine) to help reduce pain and discomfort in premature babies who need eye exams for retinopathy of prematurity (a condition that can affect vision). The goal is to see if the spray works better than the usual care for calming babies during the exam.
Be’er Ya‘aqov, CenterAges 4 weeks+ - NCT06315556Recruiting
Study of Eylea for preterm babies with retinopathy of prematurity in the UK
This study collects information on how the medicine Eylea is given to preterm babies with retinopathy of prematurity (an eye problem in premature infants) using a special dosing device. The goal is to see how the treatment works in everyday hospital care.
Multiple LocationsAges Up to 1 year - NCT06478407Recruiting
Diabetic Retinopathy Screening in Tianjin 2024
This trial is a community screening program in Tianjin that checks people with diabetes for diabetic retinopathy. It aims to find early signs of eye damage from diabetes so you can get the right care.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT06520410RecruitingPhase 4
Short vitrectomy tool for children's eye surgery
This trial tests a shorter, 18-millimeter tool for vitrectomy surgery in children. It aims to see if this smaller tool is safe and works well for treating various eye problems in kids.
TaoyuanAges birth–18 years - NCT06694103Recruiting
Two ways to reduce pain during a baby's eye exam
This study tests two drug-free methods to help reduce pain when premature babies get a special eye exam for retinopathy of prematurity. It may help your baby feel more comfortable during the procedure.
Izmir, MenemenAges 6 months–8 months - NCT06717412Recruiting
Low-dose conbercept for retinopathy of prematurity
This trial tests whether a low dose of conbercept, given as an eye injection, can safely treat type 1 ROP (an eye disease in premature babies). The goal is to stop abnormal blood vessel growth and prevent vision loss.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges Any age - NCT06770933RecruitingPhase 2
VX-01 pill for diabetic eye disease study
This trial tests if an oral medication called VX-01 can help people with diabetic eye disease (non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy) that is moderate to severe but not yet at the most advanced stage. It may be an option if you have type 1 or type 2 diabetes and have not had certain prior eye treatments.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06782997Recruiting
Using a quick eye test to check for diabetes eye damage
This trial tests if a special eye exam (electroretinogram) done by a nurse can find early signs of diabetic retinopathy in people with diabetes who have no known eye problems yet. It aims to make screening easier and more accessible.
ReimsAges 18 years+ - NCT06787482RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Peptide therapy for retinitis pigmentosa
This trial tests a new peptide therapy for people with retinitis pigmentosa (RP), a genetic eye disease that causes vision loss. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and can help slow or improve vision loss.
CairoAges Any age - NCT06821399Recruiting

LanzhouAges 20–79 - NCT06879834Recruiting
AI software for diabetic eye screening
This study tests an AI platform that checks for diabetic retinopathy, a common eye problem in people with diabetes. It aims to see if the AI can spot signs of damage early, so you can get treatment sooner.
OdesaAges 18–90 - NCT06892353Recruiting
AI eye screening for diabetic retinopathy
This trial tests a new AI-powered, do-it-yourself screening system for diabetic retinopathy. It may help find early signs of eye disease in people who haven't had an eye exam in the past year.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT06899529Recruiting
Bevacizumab after eye surgery for diabetic retinopathy
This trial tests whether giving bevacizumab (a medicine that slows abnormal blood vessel growth) right after vitrectomy (a surgery to remove blood or scar tissue from the eye) can help people with advanced diabetic eye disease. The goal is to improve vision and reduce the need for more treatments.
Querétaro City, QuerétaroAges 18 years+ - NCT06955611Recruiting
Is home monitoring safe for early diabetic eye problems?

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for retinopathy?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 116 recruiting retinopathy 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 retinopathy 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 retinopathy 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.
