Imaging test and personalized modeling for keratoconus

Cornea; EctasiaRefractive ErrorsKeratoconus

Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.

This trial uses special eye imaging to measure how your cornea (the eye’s clear front surface) changes, and then builds a personalized model for you. It may help doctors plan safer, more tailored treatment for keratoconus—especially if you’re considering LASIK.

Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Who can take part

  • You have been diagnosed with keratoconus based on standard eye tests
  • Your cornea measurements show the typical pattern of keratoconus (for example, irregular astigmatism and steepness)
  • You are being considered for LASIK surgery
  • You have a LASIK plan/schedule with your eye surgeon
  • You can provide informed consent, or a legal guardian can help if needed

Eye pressure and tissue testing for cornea health

This study uses a special, noninvasive microscope technique to study how your cornea tissue behaves. It may help doctors better understand keratoconus and corneal changes after common eye procedures.

Using OCT scans to diagnose irregular corneas

This study tests whether a special eye scan called OCT can better identify causes of irregular cornea shape. Results may help doctors sort out different cornea problems so treatment choices, like certain procedures, can be more targeted.

Surgery for keratoconus and corneal ectasia

This trial tests a surgery called CTAK for people with keratoconus or corneal ectasia. It aims to see if the surgery can help improve vision by reshaping the cornea.

Using a new scan to find early signs of keratoconus

This study uses a special eye scan (anterior segment OCT) to map the cornea's surface and help detect keratoconus at an early stage. It aims to improve diagnosis for people with suspicious or mild signs of the condition.

NCT02118922Recruiting
Testing a light-scanning eye exam to diagnose corneal thinning

This study tests whether a special “Brillouin” microscope scan can spot corneal ectasia and related cornea conditions. It may help doctors diagnose problems earlier and better sort out who needs closer eye care.

NCT06739018Not yet recruiting
Eye imaging study for keratoconus and high nearsightedness

This study uses a special camera (Schiempflug imaging) to measure the front part of the eye in people with keratoconus or high nearsightedness with astigmatism. It aims to understand how these conditions affect the cornea and help improve future treatments.
