Reading help for people with glaucoma
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a reading module designed to help people with glaucoma improve their reading skills and quality of life. It may help you if you have glaucoma and have some vision loss but can still read.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age between 18 and 80 years.
- Diagnosed with one of these types of glaucoma: primary open-angle, primary angle-closure, normal-tension, or juvenile open-angle.
- Have vision of 6/60 or better in both eyes, meaning you have some useful sight.
- Have visual field loss (blind spots) that extend more than 10 degrees from the center in both eyes.
- Either have your natural lens (not had cataract surgery) or have had cataract surgery more than 3 months ago.
- Are able to read (literate).

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how well your side (peripheral) vision helps you understand what you see in everyday scenes. It compares people with stable glaucoma to people without eye diseases, to learn which parts of vision and attention matter most.
This trial tests whether a home-based exercise program can lower eye pressure and protect the optic nerve in people with glaucoma. It is designed for patients whose eye pressure is already controlled by medication.
This study compares two types of glasses (single-vision vs. progressive lenses) to see which one helps people with aging-related reading difficulty (presbyopia) see better and feel better in daily life. You may qualify if you are 40–70 and have trouble reading up close but haven't used reading glasses recently.
This study tests new ways to evaluate eyes to help diagnose glaucoma and related eye conditions. You may be able to join if you’re an adult with normal eye health or with concerns like myopia, glaucoma suspicion, or ocular hypertension.
This trial tests if active video games and exercise can help people with glaucoma improve their balance and daily function. It's for people who have stable vision loss and can still walk independently.
This study uses advanced eye imaging to better understand and diagnose glaucoma. It is looking for adults with or at risk for primary open-angle glaucoma to help improve detection methods.
