Glaucoma diagnosis and imaging study
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study evaluates imaging techniques to diagnose glaucoma, a condition that can damage the optic nerve and affect vision. It aims to improve detection of early glaucoma, especially in people with elevated eye pressure or suspicious optic nerve findings.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 40 and 90 years old.
- Your vision must be good (at least 8/10) after correction.
- You may have elevated eye pressure (≥21 mmHg) with normal visual field, OR an optic nerve that looks suspicious, OR a repeatable visual field defect typical of glaucoma.
- If you have glaucoma, the severity of your visual field loss must be mild to moderate (MD between -3 and -10 dB).
- You must not have had eye surgery in the last 6 months (except uncomplicated cataract surgery).
- You must not have high myopia (more than -3 diopters), certain optic disc anomalies, or a history of specific retinal surgeries.

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 how well certain eye tests work for people with glaucoma or high eye pressure before they have surgery. It aims to improve the way doctors measure and track glaucoma.
This study uses advanced eye scans to compare the eyes of people with glaucoma against those with healthy eyes. It aims to find better ways to detect and monitor glaucoma, which could help preserve vision.
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 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 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.
