Eye stiffness study in glaucoma patients using a special camera
Treatments studied
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 18 or older
- You have either high-tension glaucoma, normal-tension glaucoma, or are a healthy volunteer without glaucoma
- Your vision must be at least 20/25 (with glasses or contacts, but no contacts allowed in the study)
- You cannot have used any glaucoma eye drops before
- No prior eye surgery or laser, and no diabetes or certain neurological conditions

Similar studies
Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how the optic nerve (the part of your eye that sends images to your brain) strains or bends in people who do not have glaucoma. It uses advanced eye imaging and home pressure checks to understand the nerve's health.
This study measures how blood flows in the retina and how well the eye regulates that flow. It compares people with early or very early glaucoma to people without glaucoma to see what differences may predict progression.
This study uses advanced eye imaging (OCT and OCTA) to understand how the blood vessels and tissue layers in the back of the eye differ between people with glaucoma, people at risk for angle-closure glaucoma, and people with healthy eyes. The findings may help doctors better diagnose and understand these eye conditions.
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.
This study tracks changes in blood flow, structure, and vision over time in people with glaucoma or high eye pressure. It aims to understand how these conditions progress, which could help improve future treatment.
This study looks at different ways to measure how glaucoma affects your vision over time by comparing visual field results. It may help researchers find better models to track progression so treatment decisions can be made more accurately.
