Home eye pressure monitoring for glaucoma
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests whether measuring your eye pressure at home with a special device can help control glaucoma and slow its progression. It may offer a more convenient way to track your condition between doctor visits.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been recently diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma, the most common type of glaucoma.
- Your vision in the study eye must be at least 20/40 or better, meaning you can read most lines on an eye chart.
- You must be able to use the home monitoring device after training.
- You must not have had eye surgery (except uncomplicated cataract removal) or certain eye conditions like dry eye, diabetic eye disease, or severe nearsightedness.
- You must have good quality eye scans and be able to complete visual field tests reliably.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether a simple home-based circuit training program can help lower eye pressure and protect the optic nerve in people with glaucoma. It may be a safe way to add exercise to your routine without needing special equipment.
This study measures how eye pressure and standard eye-function tests perform in people with normal eyes, higher eye pressure, or early signs of glaucoma. It may help researchers understand who is at risk and how best to monitor eye health before or during glaucoma.
This study tests a smart contact lens that may help monitor glaucoma by measuring eye pressure. It is looking for people with glaucoma (who already use eye-drop medicine) and healthy adults without glaucoma to see if the lens works well over time.
This study tests a new soft contact lens that measures eye pressure continuously. It might help doctors monitor conditions like glaucoma more comfortably in the future.
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 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.
