Observing eye disease progression in type 2 diabetes
This study closely follows people with type 2 diabetes who have early signs of diabetic retinopathy (damage to the retina from diabetes) to see how the condition changes over time. It does not test a new treatment but monitors the eye's health closely. It may be a good fit if you have diabetic retinopathy that does not need immediate treatment.

Personalized faricimab for new polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy
This study tests a personalized treatment plan using an investigational drug called faricimab for people who have a specific type of wet age-related macular degeneration known as polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy. The goal is to see if adjusting the time between injections based on your individual needs can safely dry up fluid in the retina and improve vision.
Daegu, NamguAges 50 years+ - NCT06048380RecruitingPhase 3
Ripasudil drops for FED patients having cataract surgery
This trial tests if ripasudil eye drops can help people with Fuchs' endothelial dystrophy (FED) during and after cataract surgery. It aims to see if the drops protect the eye's inner layer and improve recovery.
Singapore, SingaporeAges 50–100 - NCT06801678Recruiting
Comparing two eye measurement devices for cataract surgery
This trial tests two different devices that measure your eyes before cataract surgery to see which one helps doctors choose the best lens implant. The goal is to get your vision as close to perfect as possible after surgery.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 21 years+ - NCT07449000Recruiting
Losartan for corneal scar treatment
This trial tests if losartan, a common blood pressure medicine, can help reduce corneal scars. It may be an option for adults with a stable corneal scar that has been present for at least one month.
Monterrey, Nueo LeonAges 18 years+ - NCT07452679Recruiting
Osteopathy with eye exercises for screen-work eye strain
This study tests whether adding osteopathy (a hands-on therapy for muscles and joints) to standard eye exercises helps people who have eye strain from computer work. If you spend long hours at a screen and have eye discomfort, it might improve your symptoms.
Andorra la Vella, AndorraAges 18 years+ - NCT07447011Recruiting
Glaucoma treatment response with sleep apnea lifestyle changes
This trial tests whether lifestyle changes can help open-angle glaucoma in people who also have obstructive sleep apnea and are obese. It may offer a non-drug way to manage both conditions.
Giza, DokkiAges 30–50 - NCT07452042Recruiting
Add-on lens for astigmatism after corneal transplant and cataract surgery
This trial tests a special add-on lens for people who have already had a corneal transplant and cataract surgery, to improve vision by correcting astigmatism. It may help reduce the need for glasses or contacts after these procedures.
Vienna, State of ViennaAges 45–95 - NCT07447973Recruiting
AI eye test for multiple eye diseases
This trial uses artificial intelligence to analyze eye images and help diagnose and prioritize eye conditions. It could help find the right treatment faster.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07449195Recruiting
Comparing two eye-imaging devices for eye tumors
This study compares two non-invasive imaging machines (OCT) that take detailed pictures of eye tumors. The goal is to see which machine gives better images, helping doctors choose the best tool for diagnosing and monitoring eye tumors.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07446582Recruiting
AI camera test for wet AMD detection
This study tests a new AI-powered camera that takes special pictures of the back of the eye to find signs of wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD) more easily. It compares images from people with wet AMD and healthy volunteers to see if the AI can spot the disease early.
Woodbridge, New JerseyAges 40 years+ - NCT07453212Enrolling by invitation
