Study of cornea strength after lens-based laser for myopia
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study looks at how the front “clear window” of the eye (the cornea) behaves after a lens-based laser procedure for nearsightedness. The goal is to better understand corneal strength in people getting this treatment, which may help improve safety and outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are age 20 to 50 and planning this procedure for nearsightedness (myopia).
- Your nearsightedness is stronger than -3 (and your astigmatism is less than 0.25).
- You can come back for all planned follow-up eye visits.
- You can understand and follow study instructions, and consent in English or German.
- You must not have an uneven/irregular cornea pattern on the test (asymmetry greater than 1.0D in the inner 5 mm).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares two types of laser eye surgery (CLEAR and SMILE) to see which works better for nearsightedness and astigmatism. If you are eligible, it could help find the best option for your vision.
This trial tests a laser device to correct nearsightedness and astigmatism by reshaping the cornea without creating a flap. It may be a good option if you have stable vision and want to reduce your need for glasses or contacts.
This study tests a newer version of LASIK eye surgery to correct nearsightedness and astigmatism. The researchers want to see if this laser approach is safe and effective for people who are eligible.
This study tests how well children adapt to special myopia control lenses. It aims to see if these lenses are comfortable and easy to wear for kids with nearsightedness.
This study compares a new type of laser surgery (ray-tracing guided) to three other standard laser methods for correcting nearsightedness with or without astigmatism. It aims to see which approach provides the best vision correction.
This trial tests if a newer laser machine (VISUMAX 800) works as well as the current standard (VISUMAX 500) for correcting nearsightedness. It may help decide if the newer technology offers better outcomes for patients.
