A new laser treatment for better near vision without glasses
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a new laser procedure that creates a tiny pocket inside your cornea (the clear front part of your eye) to help you see up close without glasses. It's for people who have presbyopia (age-related trouble focusing on nearby objects) and are tired of needing reading glasses.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You want to stop using glasses for seeing up close.
- Your eyes have trouble focusing on close objects (this is called presbyopia).
- You do not have an active eye infection or other eye health problem.
- You have not had any eye surgery before.
- You have no current eye infection.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a new device called Opti-K that helps people see better up close without needing reading glasses. It may be an option if you are over 40, have had cataract surgery or no significant cataracts, and rely on reading glasses for near tasks.
This trial tests a new light-based treatment to help aging eyes focus better on close objects, which could reduce the need for reading glasses.
This trial tests a new treatment called the VIS Opti-K™ System to help people with presbyopia (age-related trouble seeing up close) see better without glasses. It uses a special lens to improve near vision in one eye while keeping distance vision clear.
This trial tests a new LASIK technique called PRESBYOND to improve vision at all distances in people with presbyopia (age-related need for reading glasses). It uses the MEL90 excimer laser to reshape the cornea.
This trial tests whether Relex-SMILE eye laser surgery can improve nearsightedness that remains after you’ve already had cataract surgery. It’s meant for people with a certain range of leftover nearsightedness, while excluding certain eye problems and prior eye procedures.
This study tests a treatment to improve vision in people who still have an ongoing focusing problem (residual nearsightedness or farsightedness) about 6 months after receiving a trifocal intraocular lens. It may help if your vision is still reduced despite having the lens implanted.
