This completed phase 4 trial tested whether a rapid weight loss program using semaglutide (Ozempic/Wegovy) plus a very low calorie diet can help people with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), a condition where high pressure in the skull causes headaches and vision proble…

This study tested ACTH gel, given as a shot under the skin, in 28 people with non-infectious uveitis (eye inflammation not caused by an infection). The goal was to see if it is safe and can help control inflammation. Participants received one of two doses, and researchers tracked…

This study tests a daily pill called ALK-001, a modified form of vitamin A, to see if it can slow the growth of geographic atrophy—an advanced form of dry age-related macular degeneration that causes blind spots. About 300 people with the condition took either the drug or a place…

This study tested a new method called metagenomic deep sequencing (MDS) to find the cause of eye infections. 100 adults with suspected infectious uveitis or endophthalmitis were randomly assigned to have their doctors receive MDS results or not, in addition to standard tests. The…

This study looked at whether a new, high-resolution MRI can help doctors more accurately and confidently diagnose the cause of optic disc swelling (a sign of various eye or brain problems). Researchers used these detailed scans on 197 adults with optic disc swelling to see if the…

Researchers tested an artificial intelligence program that analyzes retinal images to diagnose several nerve and brain conditions, such as optic neuropathy and brain tumors. The study used data from 693 patients with confirmed diagnoses. The goal is to create a fast triage tool f…

This study looked at over 550,000 people who received Eylea® injections for eye conditions to find out how often retinal vasculitis (a rare eye inflammation) occurs. Researchers used a large US registry and medical records to confirm cases. The goal was to better understand the s…

This completed study analyzed data from nearly 290,000 patients who received aflibercept (Eylea) injections for various retinal diseases. The goal was to estimate how often retinal vasculitis (inflammation of blood vessels in the eye) occurs in real-world clinical practice. Resea…

This study looked at the brain's lymphatic system in 40 women with idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH), a condition causing severe headaches and vision loss. Researchers used a special MRI technique to compare lymphatic vessels in patients and healthy controls. The goal wa…
