Retina camera test in people with heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses a simple camera to take pictures of the back of your eye (retina) to see how useful retinal imaging might be in people with heart failure. You may also be invited as a healthy control, depending on the group you belong to.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older
- You have a diagnosis of heart failure, or you qualify as a healthy control
- You can agree to participate and follow the study steps (including signing consent forms)
- You can have eye photos taken with a handheld, automated camera without needing dilation drops
- You do not have major eye problems that would interfere with the retinal camera (like cataracts, glaucoma, blindness, or worsening diabetic eye disease)

This study tests whether a simple eye photo can help doctors better predict the course of heart failure with reduced pumping strength. If it works, this low-cost test could improve care for people with this condition.
This research study tests a new camera technology that takes detailed pictures of the back of your eye (retina) to better understand eye diseases. Researchers want to compare images from people with eye conditions like diabetes-related eye disease, glaucoma, or age-related macular degeneration with healthy volunteers to see how the new imaging works.
This study uses a special, high-resolution camera to take detailed pictures of the back of the eye. It is testing the camera's ability to see changes in the retina for people who are healthy or have age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, or other conditions that affect autofluorescence patterns.
This trial studies whether a new, very high-resolution and high-speed eye scan can be used for people with eye problems or for healthy volunteers. It may help doctors better “see” eye structures more clearly to guide care.
This study looks at whether images of the back of your eye and certain substances in your blood can help identify people at high risk for heart disease. If you're having tests for chest pain or other heart concerns, this research may help improve early detection.
This study uses a special camera to take very detailed pictures of blood flow in the retina (the light-sensitive part at the back of your eye). It aims to better understand normal eye blood flow in healthy young adults.
