OCT for retinal vein occlusion
Part of Eyes & vision, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial uses a special imaging test called OCT (optical coherence tomography) to look at the retina in people with retinal vein occlusion. It helps doctors see the swelling (macular edema) and better understand the condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have been diagnosed with a branch or central retinal vein occlusion (a blockage in the veins of the eye).
- You have swelling in the center of the retina (macular edema) confirmed by an OCT scan.
- You have never had a retinal vein occlusion in the affected eye before.
- You do not have other eye diseases that could affect the OCT results, such as diabetic retinopathy or age-related macular degeneration.
- You have not had eye surgery in the last three months, and you do not have dense cataracts or bleeding inside the eye that would block the OCT scan.

This trial studies rare diseases affecting the retina or choroid using detailed eye scans (OCT). It may help doctors better understand how these conditions look in the eye and how imaging findings relate to vision.
This trial uses a special camera (OCT) to capture detailed images of the eye. It aims to improve eye disease detection. You may join if you have retinal disease, glaucoma, corneal disease, or healthy eyes.
This study uses a detailed eye scan (optical coherence tomography angiography) to look at how blood vessels in the retina are affected. It may help researchers better understand retinal vascular diseases, though some people will be excluded for safety or image-quality reasons.
This study uses a special type of eye scan (OCTA) to look at blood vessels in the back of the eye. It's for people with various eye conditions, and aims to help doctors see and understand these diseases better.
This trial studies a light-guided eye treatment in people with generalized inherited retinal disease (a genetic cause of vision loss). It aims to see whether the approach works safely and can improve function for people whose vision is already significantly reduced.
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.
