Tracking Eye Function After Diabetes Swelling Treatment
Part of Eyes & vision, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study follows patients with diabetic eye swelling (a complication of diabetes affecting the macula, the part of your eye needed for detailed vision) who are receiving anti-VEGF injections—a standard treatment that reduces abnormal blood vessel growth. Researchers will measure how well your retina (the light-sensitive tissue in your eye) recovers and functions over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age 18 or older
- Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes diagnosis
- Vision of at least 20/320 (corrected with glasses or contacts)
- At least one eye with diabetic macular edema (swelling in the center of the retina) that needs treatment
- No previous treatment for diabetic eye complications
- No recent or planned eye surgery (within 4 months before or 6 months after enrollment)

This study observes how diabetes affects vision over time in people with diabetes. It helps doctors better understand eye health without any treatment or intervention.
This study compares two different eye injection treatments for diabetic macular edema (DME)—a condition where fluid builds up in the center of the retina, blurring vision. Researchers want to see how certain measures in the blood and in eye scans relate to how well each treatment works.
This Phase 3 study compares a new eye injection (RC28-E) with the standard treatment (aflibercept) for diabetic macular edema, which is swelling in the central retina that affects vision. It aims to see whether the new treatment works as well and is safe.
This study looks at how the eyes of people with diabetes-related swelling in the retina change after their very first anti-VEGF injection. By measuring early changes in OCT scans, doctors hope to learn more about how well the treatment works and how to predict outcomes.
This study tests whether receiving anti-VEGF injections for diabetic macular edema (DME) at home is as safe and effective as getting them in the hospital. You would use a home device to check your vision and eye scans, and a nurse would visit for injections.
This study follows people with type 2 diabetes to understand how diabetic retinopathy (an eye disease caused by diabetes) changes over time without treatment. It may help if you have no other eye issues causing new blood vessels and are not planning for certain eye procedures.
