Eye scan during cornea transplant surgery for surgical guidance
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a special light-based camera scan used during surgery (optical coherence tomography) can help guide cornea transplant procedures. It may help surgeons see the eye’s layers in real time to improve accuracy.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be an adult (over 18 years old)
- You have a cornea transplant diagnosis (keratoplasty)
- You are able to give informed consent (or you have a way to consent)
- You are not a healthy adult without a cornea transplant diagnosis

This study uses an imaging scan called optical coherence tomography (a non-painful light scan) during surgery to map what “normal” eye tissue looks like. It may help improve how eye specialists assess eyes in the future.
This trial tests whether a special eye scan (OCT) can help guide eye surgery during the operation. It may improve how surgeons see and target the exact eye structures they need to treat.
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 tests a laser procedure guided by an eye scan to improve vision caused by surface (front) cornea cloudiness or irregularities. It may help some people whose vision problem is mainly in the outer cornea and can be safely treated without reaching deep tissue.
This study uses a special eye scan (anterior segment OCT) to map the cornea's surface and help detect keratoconus at an early stage. It aims to improve diagnosis for people with suspicious or mild signs of the condition.
This study uses a special imaging technique called optical coherence tomography (OCT) during lens surgery to help doctors see inside your eye more clearly. It may be a good option if you need surgery for a cataract or a lens that is out of place.
