This study tests whether special spectacle lenses (called DIMS-TED) can slow down the progression of myopia (nearsightedness) in university students. It is for students whose eyes are still growing and who are willing to wear the glasses as assigned.
Bradford, West YorkshireAges 18–23 - NCT07208838Enrolling by invitation
Testing a new digital eye chart for vision in Bulgaria
This study checks if a new digital eye chart (DDIVAT) works as well as traditional paper charts for measuring distance vision. It includes Bulgarian-speaking adults and healthy volunteers.
PlovdivAges 18 years+ - NCT07089615Recruiting
Capsule vs colonoscopy for polyp detection
This trial tests a new capsule that you swallow to take pictures of your colon. It may help find polyps (growths that can turn into cancer) as well as a standard colonoscopy does.

Visual screening study for children with special needs
This study uses a video-based eye-tracking system to test how well children with special needs and typical preschoolers can see. It aims to find a friendly way to screen vision without asking children to read letters.
TaipeiAges birth–70 years - NCT06924944Recruiting
A study of a new lens for people who had laser eye surgery
This study looks at how well a type of artificial lens (Clareon Vivity) works for people who have had laser eye surgery in the past and now need cataract surgery. It aims to see if this lens gives good vision without glasses.
Ogden, UtahAges Any age - NCT07208318RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Restructuring brain signals for aging vision
This study tests a new way to help older adults improve their vision by retraining how the brain processes visual information. It may help with age-related vision changes.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07149259Recruiting
Testing eSight Go at home for vision loss
This trial tests whether using eSight Go electronic glasses at home can help people with vision impairment see better in daily life. You wear the device while doing normal activities to see if it improves your vision and quality of life.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18–90 - NCT07635706Recruiting
Vision-Focused Occupational Therapy for Elementary School Children
This study tests whether a special occupational therapy program can help improve visual skills in 3rd and 4th grade children. The program focuses on activities that strengthen how children see and use their eyes in daily tasks.
Istanbul, IstanbulAges 8–10 - NCT06095310Recruiting
Understanding severe depression in hospitalized patients
This study looks at the clinical and psychiatric features of severe depression in adults who are hospitalized. It aims to better understand the condition and improve care.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT07176429Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two light adjustable lenses after cataract surgery
This study compares how well two types of light adjustable lenses (LAL and LAL Plus) help you see at different distances after cataract surgery, compared to a standard lens. It aims to see if the light adjustable lens can reduce the need for glasses.
Valencia, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07745062RecruitingPhase 4
Comparing two eye drops for mild to moderate dry eye
This study tests two types of preservative-free eye drops to see which is more effective for people with mild to moderate dry eye disease. You will use one of the drops as directed, and the study will monitor your symptoms and eye health over time.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07744425Enrolling by invitation
Surgical imaging device study
This study tests a new camera that helps surgeons see tissues more clearly during surgery. It may help improve surgical precision and safety.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–90 - NCT07547670Recruiting
Brain Stimulation for Lazy Eye in Children
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation) can help children with lazy eye (amblyopia) whose vision hasn't improved with traditional patching treatments. The goal is to see if stimulating the brain can boost the weak eye's vision.
MurciaAges 4–14 - NCT07359898Recruiting
Study of a new heart valve for aortic stenosis
This study is testing a new type of heart valve (Navitor or Navitor Vision) for people with aortic stenosis. The valve is placed without open-heart surgery, and the goal is to see how well it works in a real-world setting. If you've already been recommended for this procedure by your heart team, you may be able to join.
San Donato Milanese, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT07610226Recruiting
Cataract Surgery Lens for Prior Myopic Eye Surgery
This study tests a special intraocular lens (an artificial lens implanted during cataract surgery) designed for patients who had prior myopic refractive surgery (LASIK or PRK to correct nearsightedness). The goal is to achieve the best possible vision correction after cataract removal.
Greensboro, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT03178149RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new eye treatment for dry macular degeneration
This Phase 1 trial tests the safety and side effects of ASP7317 in older adults whose central vision is worsening from dry age-related macular degeneration (geographic atrophy). If you qualify, you would receive treatment in the study eye and be closely monitored for about a year.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 50 years+ - NCT03918408RecruitingPhase 1
Platinum eye drops and light to slow keratoconus
This Phase 1 study tests whether a specific corneal cross-linking system (called PXL-Platinum 330) is safe and effective for people with progressive keratoconus, a condition that makes the cornea thin and bulge. The goal is to slow vision changes and see how well the treatment works in the short term.
Eugene, OregonAges 12–45 - NCT03922542RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Compare faster versus standard corneal strengthening
This trial compares two ways to strengthen the cornea (the clear front surface of your eye) in people with keratoconus or corneal weakening after laser vision surgery. It may help determine whether an accelerated (faster) approach works as well and with acceptable safety.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 10 years+ - NCT03932786Recruiting
Study of health and wellbeing after retinoblastoma treatment
This study looks at long-term health outcomes—how patients are doing physically and in daily life—after treatment for retinoblastoma. It may help doctors understand what support or follow-up care could be most helpful after treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges Any age - NCT04142307Recruiting
Biofeedback training for infant eye shaking
This trial tests whether biofeedback-based training can improve control of eye shaking (nystagmus) in infants with idiopathic infantile nystagmus. If you can safely follow the training and testing steps, it may help the eyes learn more steady viewing over time.
Toronto, OntarioAges 5–17 - NCT04289571RecruitingPhase 1

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.
