Recruiting studies
- NCT05028712Recruiting
Multi-sensory rehab program for people with ultra low vision

TaipeiAges birth–70 years - NCT07213167Recruiting
Low contrast vision test for different lens implants
This trial checks how well you see in low light and low contrast after having cataract surgery with specific lens implants. It helps doctors understand which lenses work best in dim conditions.
Bakersfield, CaliforniaAges 22 years+ - NCT07096622Recruiting
Visual training for kids after lens surgery
This study tests whether special visual and perceptual training exercises can help improve eyesight in children who have had surgery for a naturally dislocated lens (congenital ectopia lentis). It is for kids aged 4–12 whose vision is still below normal after their second eye surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 4–12 - NCT05865093Recruiting
Check early vision changes in infants at risk for brain vision problems
This pilot study looks at early vision (what babies can see and how their eyes respond) in children who have risk factors for future “cerebral visual impairment,” meaning vision problems caused by the brain. It may help doctors spot issues earlier and better understand which early visual signs matter.
RomeAges 2 days–3 years - NCT06961864Recruiting
Brain function in visual snow syndrome
This study uses visual tests and brain scans to understand how the brain processes vision in people with visual snow syndrome compared to those without. It may help researchers learn more about what causes this condition.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 18–60 - NCT07679776Enrolling by invitation
Study on early vision changes in lupus patients
This study looks at whether people with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) have early signs of vision problems. Eye tests will be used to check how well you see and if there are any hidden issues in your eyes.
Hefei, AnhuiAges Any age - NCT07742878Recruiting
Vision testing in people with recent brain injury
This study tests a new device called the Traq™ that looks at how well the two eyes work together. It's for people with a recent mild-to-moderate brain injury and for people without one, to see if the device can spot vision changes after injury.
Waukee, IowaAges 12 years+ - NCT04310241Recruiting
Test eye alignment and vision changes in lazy eye patients
This study looks at vision problems in children with lazy eye (amblyopia) and eye misalignment (strabismus), and whether they improve with treatment. It may help researchers understand what visual changes to expect and which patients respond best.
Cleveland, OhioAges 6 months–90 years - NCT05394987Recruiting
Testing new glasses and vision function in amblyopia adults
This study looks at how changing your glasses prescription affects vision and visual function in adults with amblyopia (often called “lazy eye”). It may help researchers understand which optical correction best supports clearer, more balanced vision.
Waterloo, OntarioAges 18–39 - NCT06389968Recruiting
Light therapy for vision after optic neuritis in MS
This study tests whether light stimulation can help improve vision after optic neuritis in people with multiple sclerosis. It may offer a way to support eye recovery without medication.
Munich, BavariaAges 18–60 - NCT06821074Recruiting
Special glasses vs. regular glasses for slowing nearsightedness in kids
This study compares special glasses designed to slow nearsightedness (myopia) with regular glasses in children and teens. It aims to see which type better protects your child's eyesight over time.
BeijingAges 6–18 - NCT07070037Recruiting
Long-term vision after congenital cataract surgery
This study looks at how good a child's vision and eye prescription are 5 years after surgery for a cataract they were born with. The goal is to understand long-term results and help guide care for future patients.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Up to 18 years - 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 - NCT07303257Recruiting
Quality of life after glaucoma surgery: a patient-centered study
This study compares how different types of glaucoma surgery affect your daily life and well-being. If you need glaucoma surgery, you may join to help doctors understand which procedure works best from a patient's perspective.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT03160131Recruiting
Rehab program to improve vision after brain injury
This study looks at rehabilitation to improve vision after a brain injury. It may help people with significant vision problems regain everyday visual function.
Copenhagen, HellerupAges 14 years+ - NCT07676084RecruitingPhase 4
Over-the-counter lubricating eye drops for dry eye
This study tests whether over-the-counter lubricating eye drops can improve dry eye symptoms and eye comfort. It compares the drops to no treatment to see how well they work.
Andover, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT01654159Enrolling by invitation
Study of vision and lens optics during cataract surgery
This study looks at how well your vision works and how different cataract surgery lens choices perform. It may help researchers better understand what affects sight after cataract surgery.
Birmingham, West MidlandsAges 40–85 - NCT07502664Recruiting
A study on vision and navigation in inherited retinal disease
This study is looking at how people with inherited retinal disease that affects peripheral vision see and move around. It will test a new way to measure vision and navigation to see if it can help doctors understand how the disease affects daily life.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07534436Recruiting
Eye Surgery Outcomes and Mental Health in Congenital Ptosis
This study follows patients before and after surgery for congenital ptosis—a condition where the eyelid droops from birth. Researchers will measure how surgery affects vision and emotional well-being.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 3–60 - NCT07381413Recruiting
Eye tracking study for thyroid eye disease
This study uses eye tracking to compare how people with thyroid eye disease move their eyes and pay attention to visual cues. It may help researchers understand eye movement problems better.
ShanghaiAges 18–70 - NCT06694272Recruiting
Visual function tests for early age-related macular degeneration
This study looks at how well the eyes function in people with early or intermediate age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It uses imaging and vision tests to help doctors better understand the condition.
ParisAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT05268432Recruiting
Testing a surgical help system during camera-based operations
This trial tests new technology that helps surgeons during operations that use cameras, robots, or imaging. If you’re having a surgery with these tools and you can consent, you may be able to participate by supporting the in-the-room demonstration.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for visual function?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 42 recruiting visual function 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 visual function 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 visual function 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.
