Insulin drops for dry eye in glaucoma patients
Treatments studied
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests whether insulin eye drops can safely help dry eye in people who also use eye drops for glaucoma. It may offer a new option if you have both conditions and your eye pressure is stable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older
- You have been diagnosed with dry eye
- You have glaucoma or high eye pressure that is being treated with drops
- No changes to your glaucoma drops in the last 3 months
- No eye surgery (except cataract more than a year ago) or laser in the last 6 months

This Phase 1 study tests an insulin-based eye treatment to see if it’s safe and potentially helpful for people with glaucoma-related optic nerve damage. If you may be eligible, you’ll have a close eye exam and repeated vision testing, mainly focused on one study eye.
This study looks at how certain glaucoma eye drops affect the surface of your eye. It tests a new implant that may reduce damage and improve comfort.
This study looks at tools to help people use their glaucoma eyedrops correctly. You may be eligible if you've been on the same drops for 2 months and are a patient at Boston University Eye Associates.
This study measures inflammation markers on the eye surface in people with primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who use certain glaucoma drops. The results may help doctors understand how these drops affect the eye and inflammation.
This study tests whether insulin eye drops applied directly to the eye can help slow or stop glaucoma progression. Glaucoma damages the optic nerve and causes vision loss; this trial explores whether insulin might protect the nerve and preserve sight.
This trial tests whether insulin eye drops can help the cornea heal faster after corneal crosslinking, a procedure to treat keratoconus. It is for people with keratoconus who do not have diabetes, severe dry eye, or certain other eye conditions.
