A gentler eye pressure test for children with glaucoma
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study compares a new handheld device that measures eye pressure without touching the eye to the standard method in children with glaucoma. It aims to see if the new device is as accurate but more comfortable for kids.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 years old or younger.
- You must have been diagnosed with glaucoma.
- You must be a patient at the pediatric glaucoma clinic.
- Your cornea (the clear front part of the eye) must not be scarred.

This study compares two methods for measuring eye pressure—one using a standard device and one using a newer device—to see if they give similar results. It might help if you need a reliable, comfortable way to monitor your eye pressure.
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.
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 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.
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.
