Detailed eye imaging to study retinal cell changes
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study uses a special eye camera to take very detailed pictures of the retina (the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye) to see how cells change in diseases that affect vision. By comparing people with retinal conditions and healthy volunteers, researchers hope to better understand these diseases and potentially improve diagnosis and monitoring.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 10 and 80 years old (age varies by group)
- Have a condition affecting the inner retina (e.g., glaucoma, optic neuropathy) or the outer retina (e.g., AMD, retinitis pigmentosa), OR be a healthy volunteer
- Be covered by health insurance
- Be able to sit still with your chin on a rest for eye imaging
- Not be allergic to tropicamide (a dilating eye drop) if pupil dilation is needed

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses a new type of eye camera to take very detailed pictures of the front of the eye (cornea, lens, and nearby areas). It is for people with certain eye conditions or for healthy volunteers.
This study is testing a new camera system to take pictures of the inside of the eye (the back part where the retina is). It is for people who have eye diseases like age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma, or diabetic retinopathy. The goal is to see how well the camera works in real-world conditions.
This trial studies whether a new, very high-resolution and high-speed eye scan can be used for people with eye problems or for healthy volunteers. It may help doctors better “see” eye structures more clearly to guide care.
This study uses a special, high-resolution camera to take detailed pictures of the back of the eye. It is testing the camera's ability to see changes in the retina for people who are healthy or have age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, or other conditions that affect autofluorescence patterns.
This study tests a new eye imaging device to see if it can take clear pictures of the back of the eye. It may help doctors better see and monitor conditions like macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.
This study uses a special, high-detail eye imaging machine to take clear pictures of the outer retina. It may help researchers understand these eye conditions better, and how the eye images look when people have an outer retinal disease.
