One-Time gene injection aims to halt rare blindness
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis trial tests a single injection of a gene therapy called ZVS101e for people with Bietti crystalline dystrophy, a rare inherited eye disease that leads to progressive vision loss. The therapy uses a harmless virus to deliver a working copy of the CYP4V2 gene to cells in the ey…

Gene therapy takes on rare eye disease in Second-Eye trial
Disease control Not yet recruitingThis study is for people with Bietti's crystalline dystrophy, a rare genetic eye disease that causes vision loss. They have already received the gene therapy VGR-R01 in one eye. Now, researchers want to test if giving the same treatment to the other eye is safe and can improve vi…

Smart contact lens could help those with vision loss see better
Symptom relief Not yet recruitingThis study tests a miniaturized smart contact lens in 32 people—some healthy, some with Stargardt's disease—to see if it is comfortable and easy to use. The lens tracks eye movements to help with vision tasks. Researchers will check for side effects and ask participants how they …

Scientists track eye disease patterns to speed future cures
Knowledge-focused Not yet recruitingThis study looks back at medical records of 200 people with inherited retinal diseases, like retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease. Researchers will analyze vision tests and eye scans to see how these diseases progress and how genetics affect symptoms. The goal is to find be…

New study aims to link eye scans with vision loss in macular dystrophy
Knowledge-focused Not yet recruitingThis study will look at 30 people with macular dystrophy to see how different eye tests—like OCT scans, mfERG, and standard vision tests—relate to each other. The goal is to better understand how these tests can track vision changes. No treatment is being tested; this is purely a…
