Eye injections aim to save sight in rare coats disease

NCT ID NCT03940690

First seen Jan 07, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 23 times

Summary

This study looked at whether anti-VEGF injections into the eye can help treat Coats disease, a rare condition that causes abnormal blood vessels and fluid buildup in the retina, potentially leading to blindness. The trial included 18 people with early-stage Coats disease who had not received any prior eye treatment. Researchers compared the effects of these injections combined with standard laser therapy versus laser therapy alone to see if the injections could improve the disease stage and reduce the need for repeat laser treatments.
