Glaucoma treatment response with sleep apnea lifestyle changes
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision, Hormones & metabolism, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests whether lifestyle changes can help open-angle glaucoma in people who also have obstructive sleep apnea and are obese. It may offer a non-drug way to manage both conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea.
- You are obese (your doctor can confirm this).
