Imaging eye blood flow to assess glaucoma
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study uses special imaging to look at blood flow in the eye to help assess or better understand glaucoma. You may be eligible if you’re an adult with eye exams that fit the study’s specific eye-health and imaging requirements.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older and can see with both eyes (binocular vision)
- You can read and sign an informed consent form
- You are either a healthy participant, being evaluated for glaucoma, or have moderate to severe glaucoma in at least one eye
- Your eye clarity is good enough for testing (no major cataract or serious corneal scarring)
- You have not had major eye surgery before (except simple cataract surgery, SLT/ALT laser for glaucoma, or YAG capsulotomy)
- You do not have diabetes, are not pregnant or nursing, and do not have a very high refractive error (more than 15 diopters)
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study measures how blood flows in the retina and how well the eye regulates that flow. It compares people with early or very early glaucoma to people without glaucoma to see what differences may predict progression.
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 new, non-invasive laser imaging technique to measure blood flow in the eye. It aims to understand how blood flow is affected in certain eye and blood vessel conditions, which may help doctors manage treatments better.
This study uses a special imaging test (OCT angiography) to look at blood flow around the optic nerve in people with advanced glaucoma. It aims to better understand how glaucoma affects eye circulation, which may help improve future care.
This study uses advanced eye scans to compare the eyes of people with glaucoma against those with healthy eyes. It aims to find better ways to detect and monitor glaucoma, which could help preserve vision.
This study uses advanced eye imaging (OCT and OCTA) to understand how the blood vessels and tissue layers in the back of the eye differ between people with glaucoma, people at risk for angle-closure glaucoma, and people with healthy eyes. The findings may help doctors better diagnose and understand these eye conditions.
