Recruiting studies
- NCT06596733Recruiting
Testing a new eye ointment for dry eyes (Vit-A-Vision)
This trial tests a medical device eye ointment called Vit-A-Vision for people with dry eye disease. It aims to see if the ointment can improve symptoms and tear film stability over about a month.

Vision therapy vs prism for small-angle eye turn
This trial compares two non-surgical treatments—vision therapy exercises and prism glasses—for people with a recent, constant inward eye turn (esotropia) of a small angle. The goal is to see which approach works better to straighten the eyes.
ShanghaiAges 10–40 - NCT06625749Recruiting
AccuraSee lens implant to improve near vision after cataract surgery
This trial tests an artificial lens (AccuraSee IOPCL) placed inside your eye to help you see better up close and at intermediate distances after having cataract surgery. It is for people who still need reading glasses and have a specific type of monofocal lens already in their eye.
Cleveland, OhioAges 22 years+ - NCT07512089Recruiting
Blended Vision vs. Monovision LASIK for Reading Age
This study compares two laser eye surgery approaches for people over 40 who need reading glasses. Both methods use LASIK to reduce or eliminate your need for glasses, but they work differently—one eye may be set for distance and one for close-up (monovision), or both eyes may be adjusted for mixed vision (blended vision).
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 40–55 - NCT06992622Recruiting
Youth spine and vision health study
This study is following a group of young people with scoliosis to better understand how their spine and vision change over time. It may help you learn more about your condition and contribute to future care.
Wenzhou, ZhejiangAges 6–17 - NCT07085533Recruiting
A Study of Inherited Retinal Diseases
This study is looking at how inherited retinal diseases affect color vision over time. It may help researchers understand these conditions better and is a good fit for people with a known diagnosis who can describe what they see.
WuhanAges Any age - NCT07092124Recruiting
Virtual reality test for low vision rehabilitation
This study is testing a virtual reality test to help people with low vision who are starting or have started rehabilitation. The goal is to see how well the test works for different types of vision loss.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT07147660Recruiting
Vision training to help you drive after a stroke
This study tests a vision training program to help people who lost part of their eyesight after a stroke. The goal is to see if it can improve your ability to drive safely.
KongsbergAges 20–85 - NCT07176416Recruiting
Cataract surgery study using Veritas and laser technology
This study looks at how using the Veritas system during cataract surgery affects surgery time and the health of the inner layer of your cornea. It may help doctors understand how to better protect your eyes during surgery.
‘Aiea, HawaiiAges Any age - NCT07257341Recruiting
Normal eye alignment and vision range study for adults
This study measures the normal range of how well eyes work together to see a single image. It may help understand healthy vision in adults of Asian descent.
Singapore, SingaporeAges 21–59 - NCT07278843Recruiting
Understanding vision loss in Usher syndrome type 1B
This study follows people with Usher syndrome type 1B over time to learn how vision loss progresses. It also tests new ways to measure functional vision, which may help design future treatments.
Paris, Île-de-France RegionAges 3–75 - NCT07337317Recruiting
Testing stairway designs for people with vision loss
This study compares different stairway designs to see which are easier and safer for people with vision impairment. It will help identify features that make stairs more accessible.
Huntsville, AlabamaAges 65 years+ - NCT07380256Recruiting
How vision affects balance and dizziness
This study looks at how vision problems and inner ear (vestibular) issues together affect balance. It aims to find better ways to help people with dizziness or balance problems.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18–60 - NCT07412860Recruiting
Eye drop test for moderate to severe dry eye
This trial tests a new eye drop (FBV_01) compared to a standard hyaluronic acid eye drop for people with moderate to severe dry eye. The goal is to see if the new drop provides better relief.
Cagliari, CAAges 18 years+ - NCT07554118Recruiting
Balance and Walking Study for Older Adults
This research study examines how older adults maintain balance and walk. Researchers want to understand what helps people stay steady on their feet as they age, which could lead to better ways to prevent falls.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 65–80 - NCT07643090Recruiting
AI ultrasound test for placenta attachment complications
This study tests a new artificial-intelligence tool that analyzes ultrasound images to detect placenta accreta spectrum—a condition where the placenta attaches too deeply to the uterus. If you're pregnant with risk factors like placenta previa (placenta covering the cervix), this trial may help doctors catch the problem earlier.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–45 - NCT07559292Enrolling by invitation
AI screening to catch diabetes eye problems early
This study tests whether artificial intelligence can help detect early signs of diabetes-related eye damage before vision loss happens. You'd be screened at your regular doctor visit using a new AI tool, which could catch problems earlier than usual.
Madison, WisconsinAges 22 years+ - NCT06578117Enrolling by invitation
Visual training for stroke-related vision loss
This study tests whether a computer-based visual training program can help people who have lost vision after a stroke to their brain's visual center. You must have been in a prior study with the same team.
Rochester, New YorkAges 21–75 - NCT07756385Recruiting
Comparing two cataract surgery systems
This study compares two different machines used for cataract surgery (phacoemulsification) to see if one is better. If you're having cataract surgery on both eyes, this trial might help improve your treatment.
ZagrebAges 18 years+ - NCT06934148Recruiting
One target in many situations
This study tests how people see a single target in different situations. It may help researchers understand vision better.
Newton, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05419713Recruiting
Test of how the brain processes depth and space
This study tests how people perceive depth and space using visual tasks. It may help researchers better understand normal (or well-corrected) vision and how the brain handles visual information.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18–40 - NCT04648124Recruiting
MRI brain scan study in hereditary retinal vision loss
This study uses functional MRI (a type of brain scan) to understand how the brain processes vision in people with inherited retinal disorders. You might be included if you are an adult with hereditary retinal degeneration and are planning certain vision-related treatments soon.
Paris, PARISAges 18 years+ - NCT04332783Recruiting
Study of vision errors during visual search tasks
This study asks people to complete visual search tasks to understand how certain types of visual mistakes happen in order. You might help researchers learn how to reduce these errors, which could guide better visual support in the future.
Berkeley, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04549935RecruitingPhase 4
Testing eye drops and procedures after two-eye surgery
This Phase 4 study looks at a treatment plan around the time of planned surgery on both eyes (called RLE). It may help the researchers learn how safe and effective the approach is for improving eye outcomes after surgery.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for vision?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 173 recruiting vision 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 vision 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 vision 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.
