Diabetes eye study for teens with diabetes
Part of Eyes & vision, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at how diabetes affects the eyes in children and teens. It may help doctors better detect or understand eye problems earlier in people with diabetes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- A parent or legal guardian must sign written consent for you to join

This program aims to screen people for diabetic eye problems early and help prevent vision loss over time. It may help you if you have type 2 diabetes (or you’ve been invited as a diabetes/non-diabetes participant) and can safely take part in the study activities.
This study looks back at medical records of people with type 2 diabetes to understand how diabetic eye disease (retinopathy) progresses and when treatment is needed. It may help doctors better predict risks and guide future care.
This study observes how diabetes affects vision over time in people with diabetes. It helps doctors better understand eye health without any treatment or intervention.
This study follows people with type 2 diabetes to understand how diabetic retinopathy (an eye disease caused by diabetes) changes over time without treatment. It may help if you have no other eye issues causing new blood vessels and are not planning for certain eye procedures.
This study uses special eye photographs to look at early signs of diabetes damage in the eyes and kidneys. It may help doctors predict how diabetes complications progress and plan better care.
This study looks for specific eye findings (“biomarkers”) in people with type 2 diabetes using eye imaging. It may help researchers better understand diabetic retinopathy and how to detect it earlier or more accurately.
