All recruiting trials (10)
-
Rocklatan versus latanoprost for 24-hour eye pressure control in open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension
This trial tests whether a combination eye drop (Rocklatan) lowers eye pressure over 24 hours more than latanoprost alone in adults with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
-
Patient quality of life after different glaucoma surgeries
This project uses the NEI-VFQ-25 vision questionnaire to see if adults who have PreserFlo MicroShunt, trabeculectomy, or non-penetrating deep sclerectomy report different quality of life after surgery.
-
iStent infinite plus iDose TR for moderate-to-severe open-angle glaucoma
This trial will see if placing an iStent infinite device together with an iDose TR travoprost implant can lower eye pressure and reduce glaucoma eye drops for people with moderate to severe open-angle glaucoma not controlled by medication or laser.
-
Eye-surface inflammation after replacing nightly preserved glaucoma drops with a Durysta implant
We will try a single Durysta intracameral implant to see if cutting back nightly preserved glaucoma drops reduces eye-surface inflammation in people with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension who are pseudophakic and have signs of surface damage.
-
Evaluating the effectiveness of surgical systems for treating open-angle glaucoma
This study looks at how well a combination of surgical treatments can lower eye pressure in people with open-angle glaucoma over three years.
-
Vitamin mix for glaucoma patients
This study is testing if a mix of certain vitamins can help protect the eyes and slow vision loss in people with glaucoma.
-
Comparing the effectiveness of two glaucoma treatments
This study is testing whether two new glaucoma treatments, Simbrinza and Rocklatan, work better than the current options, Cosopt and Latanoprost, for adults with mild to moderate open-angle glaucoma.
-
Investigating oral semaglutide for treating open-angle glaucoma
This study is testing if a daily pill called semaglutide can help improve vision in people with open-angle glaucoma.
-
Predicting success of glaucoma surgery using trabeculopuncture
This study is testing a new non-invasive method to see if it can help predict how well glaucoma surgery will work for patients who still have high eye pressure despite treatment.
-
Comparing ELIOS with other devices for glaucoma patients undergoing cataract surgery
This study is testing whether the ELIOS device can safely lower eye pressure better than another device for people with mild to moderate glaucoma who are having cataract surgery.
NIH-funded research (11)
Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.
-
Gene therapy to normalize eye pressure in juvenile glaucoma
A first-in-class gene therapy using a safe viral vector is being explored to normalize eye pressure in children and adults with juvenile open-angle glaucoma.
-
Improving glaucoma risk predictions using diverse genetic data
A glaucoma study uses genetic data from people of African, American, and European ancestry to build better risk scores and help with early detection.
-
Multimodal AI to predict glaucoma progression and guide care
A big-data AI tool uses eye images, scans, field tests, and health info to help predict who with open-angle glaucoma is at higher risk of vision loss so doctors can act sooner.
-
Repairing the eye's drainage support to lower pressure in steroid-related and open-angle glaucoma
This work tests whether reversing changes in the support tissue around drainage cells can help lower eye pressure for people with steroid-induced high eye pressure and open-angle glaucoma.
-
Replacing damaged eye drainage cells to treat glaucoma
This project is developing a cell-based treatment to replace lost drainage cells and help people with primary open-angle glaucoma keep eye pressure lower and protect vision.
-
Understanding how steroid exposure affects eye pressure and glaucoma
This study is looking at how changes in the eye's structure can raise pressure inside the eye, which is a problem for people with open angle glaucoma, and it’s exploring whether a treatment called tPA can help lower that pressure and improve care for patients.
-
Improving risk prediction for glaucoma in diverse populations
This study is looking to improve how we predict the risk of primary open-angle glaucoma in people of African ancestry, so that they can get better early diagnosis and treatment options based on their unique genetic background.
-
Using cell therapy to treat primary open angle glaucoma
This study is testing a new cell therapy to help people with primary open angle glaucoma by using special stem cells to improve eye function and lower pressure, which could help prevent vision loss when regular treatments aren't enough.
-
Better genetic risk prediction for open-angle glaucoma
This project will build more accurate genetic risk tools for people at risk of open-angle glaucoma by including more diverse ancestry groups in the analysis.
-
Evaluating treatments for open-angle glaucoma in diverse patient populations
This study is looking at how well a special laser treatment works compared to eye drops for people with open-angle glaucoma, and it's open to a diverse group of patients to make sure the results reflect everyone.
-
Improving fairness in glaucoma risk estimation using artificial intelligence
This study is working on a new AI tool to help better predict the risk of glaucoma, especially for people in diverse communities like African and Hispanic Americans, so that everyone can get fairer and more accurate eye care.

Where are these trials running?
In 9 countries. The most sites are in United States (5 trials), France (2 trials), Germany (2 trials), Belgium (1 trial), Netherlands (1 trial). Each study page lists its sites and which ones are recruiting.
What phases are they in?
Phase 4: 5. Trials with no phase listed are usually device, behavioural or observational studies.
How do I join one?
Open a study, check the "Is this trial a fit for you?" section, then contact the study team listed on the page. They will ask a few screening questions. Asking is free and does not commit you to anything. Talk it over with your doctor first.
