Eye scan to detect early diabetic changes
Part of Eyes & vision, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study uses an OCT scan, a painless imaging test, to look for early signs of diabetic retinopathy (damage to the retina caused by diabetes) in people who have no symptoms. It aims to detect problems early so they can be managed before vision is affected.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have type 1 or type 2 diabetes for at least 6 months
- Your vision is good (with glasses, if you wear them) - 6/6 on a standard eye chart
- You have no blurry vision or other visual symptoms from diabetes
- You have not had previous retina treatments (like laser or injections) or retinal disease
- The back of your eye is clear enough for a high-quality scan
- The pressure inside your eye is normal (below 21 mmHg)

This study uses a special eye imaging test called OCT angiography to look at tiny blood vessels in the back of the eye. It aims to understand changes caused by diabetic retinopathy, which could help improve how we monitor and treat this condition.
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 eye scan (OCT angiography) to look at new, abnormal blood vessel growth in people with wet age-related macular degeneration (wet AMD) who have not been treated yet. It may help researchers better understand the disease and how it changes over time.
This study looks for specific eye findings (“biomarkers”) in people with type 2 diabetes using eye imaging. It may help researchers better understand diabetic retinopathy and how to detect it earlier or more accurately.
This study tests whether a computer program (artificial intelligence) can use your eye scan images to help diagnose certain eye conditions. It might help catch problems earlier or more accurately, which could lead to better treatment.
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.
