Eye pressure and tissue testing for cornea health
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 60 years old
- You have one of these: keratoconus, a normal cornea, or are planning refractive surgery (LASIK/PRK/SMILE)
- Or you have keratoconus and are getting a treatment called CXL
- You have not had any previous eye surgeries
- You can cooperate during the Brillouin microscope exam (stay still and follow directions)
- You can understand and sign consent to join the study

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.
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.
This study measures how eye pressure changes after corneal cross-linking, a procedure that strengthens a weakened cornea. Researchers will use special imaging to track these changes in patients with early-stage keratoconus (a condition where the cornea thins and bulges).
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.
This study follows people with keratoconus—a condition where the cornea (clear front part of the eye) thins and bulges into a cone shape—or early signs of it. Researchers will track corneal changes over time to better understand and detect the disease early.
This study uses a non-invasive imaging technique called Brillouin hydration mapping to measure hydration levels in different parts of the eye. It aims to help doctors better understand how hydration affects eye health and disease.
