This early study is testing a new self-adjusting drainage device implanted in the eye to help control pressure in glaucoma patients. The device is designed for people whose eye pressure isn't well controlled by standard eye drop medications. Researchers will follow 10 participant…

This study is observing patients for up to 7 years after they received a special eye implant during cataract surgery. The implant is designed to both improve vision and continuously release medication to control high eye pressure from glaucoma. Researchers want to see if the impl…

This study is testing a small, permanent implant placed inside the eye to see if it can slow or stop vision loss from glaucoma. It compares the implant to a sham (fake) surgery in 54 people with moderate glaucoma. The main goal is to see if the implant helps preserve the patient'…

This small pilot study is testing whether adding a slow-release steroid insert during glaucoma tube implant surgery helps control eye pressure better. The insert is designed to reduce scarring after surgery, which can help the drainage device work more effectively. Researchers wi…

This study is testing a new, leaf-shaped surgical implant called VW-51 for people whose glaucoma isn't well controlled by eye drops or previous surgery. The implant is placed under the outer layer of the eye to help drain fluid and lower pressure. Researchers will follow 65 adult…

This study is testing a small implant called MINIject that's placed in the eye to lower internal pressure for people with open-angle glaucoma. Researchers want to see if this implant can safely reduce eye pressure over two years, potentially decreasing the need for daily eye drop…

This study is testing a small, slow-release implant placed inside the eye to see if it can protect vision in people with glaucoma. It compares the implant to a sham procedure in 30 participants over two years. The goal is to see if the implant safely slows down the vision loss ca…

This study looks back at the three-year results of a combined glaucoma surgery. Researchers are checking if using two different minimally invasive techniques together during cataract surgery works better than cataract surgery alone to lower eye pressure. They will review the reco…

This study is testing a new eye drop called QLS-111 for people with normal tension glaucoma, a type where eye pressure is not high. It will compare the safety and ability to lower eye pressure of QLS-111 against a standard eye drop (timolol). The trial involves about 36 participa…

This 5-year study offers free vision screenings to New York City residents over 40 living in affordable housing. The goal is to detect eye diseases like glaucoma, cataracts, and diabetic retinopathy earlier in underserved communities. Researchers will track participants' vision o…

This study is testing special 'smart' contact lenses that have tiny sensors to measure pressure inside the eye continuously for 24 hours. It involves 120 people, some with glaucoma and some without, to see if these lenses are as accurate and safe as standard clinic measurements. …

This study is observing how 300 patients with glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), or diabetic retinopathy respond to treatments in real-world settings. Researchers are tracking changes in eye pressure, vision, and other measures over time. The goal is to compare the…

This study is testing whether a short, AI-powered educational video can help people with glaucoma perform a standard eye test more reliably. The visual field test is crucial for monitoring glaucoma but is often difficult for patients, leading to unreliable results. Researchers wa…

This study aims to understand how the placement of tiny stents during glaucoma surgery affects long-term eye pressure control. Researchers are observing 116 adults who previously had combined cataract and stent surgery at the Moran Eye Center. They will check stent position with …

This study aims to collect vision data from healthy people to help develop a better eye test for conditions like glaucoma. Researchers will use a virtual reality headset to measure what normal peripheral vision looks like in 100 healthy adults. This data will be used to train an …
