Decoding eye inflammation with genetic sequencing
Part of Eyes & vision, Infections clinical trials.
This trial uses a new genetic test to find the cause of eye inflammation when standard tests haven't. The goal is to see if this approach can identify hidden infections and help doctors choose the right treatment to protect your vision.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older and can make your own decisions.
- Your standard tests have not yet found a diagnosis for your eye inflammation.
- You have active eye inflammation that could lead to vision loss.
- Your doctor suspects the inflammation might be caused by an infection or a condition related to an infection.

This study looks at genetic (inherited) differences in people with uveitis. The goal is to better understand what may cause uveitis and potentially help with future treatments.
This study uses a special eye scan (optical coherence tomography) to look at inflammation in the front part of the eye. It may help doctors better measure uveitis activity and guide care by improving how inflammation is seen on scans.
This trial screens people with certain eye inflammation (uveitis) to see if they might have a specific rare lymphoma linked to immune cells. It may help doctors identify the right diagnosis and understand which patients need closer monitoring.
This study uses a special eye scan (OCT) to measure and classify inflammatory cells inside the eye. It aims to better understand different types of uveitis and improve diagnosis and treatment.
This study looks at eye infections by testing leftover fluid or tissue samples to find all possible germs, including viruses, bacteria, and fungi. It may help doctors better understand what causes different eye infections and improve treatment.
This trial studies endophthalmitis, an infection inside the eye, using a genetic test to better understand what’s causing it. It may help doctors learn more about the infection and guide treatment decisions in the future.
