Testing a new eye pressure measuring device
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study compares a new device (TonoVera) against other common tools used to measure eye pressure. It may help show whether the new device gives accurate readings and is practical for routine eye exams.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be able to sign a consent form and agree to follow all study steps for the full study period
- Be between 18 and 99 years old
- Be well enough overall to come to the study visit(s)
- A trained staff member must be able to get an accurate eye pressure reading
- You must not have eye or eyelid conditions that block accurate measurements (such as strong involuntary eyelid squeezing or significant eye movement)
- You should not have thinning of the white part of the eye (scleral thinning) or an allergy to numbing drops like proparacaine or fluorescein dye used with a standard test

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares two ways to measure eye pressure (tonometers) in children with glaucoma. One is a handheld device that gently taps the eye, and the other is a traditional device that touches the eye. The goal is to see which method works better for children.
This study tests an updated device that measures eye pressure during a routine eye exam. It is for adults who are already coming in for a check-up and have no eye infections or scarring.
This study compares a special contact lens that measures eye pressure with standard eye-pressure testing. It may help people with glaucoma or ocular hypertension by improving how pressure is monitored.
This study tests new ways to diagnose glaucoma (and sometimes related eye conditions) using eye exams and measurements. It may help improve how doctors detect glaucoma earlier and more accurately.
This study uses a special camera (Brillouin microscopy) to measure how stiff your cornea is. It compares people with different types of glaucoma to those without glaucoma, helping researchers understand the link between corneal stiffness and eye pressure.
This study tracks changes in blood flow, structure, and vision over time in people with glaucoma or high eye pressure. It aims to understand how these conditions progress, which could help improve future treatment.
