NCT ID NCT06380075

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study compares two new ultrawide field cameras (Clarus and Optos) to the standard Spectralis camera for taking pictures of the back of the eye in people with inherited retinal diseases. Fifty adults will have their eyes dilated and photographed with all three cameras. The goal is to see if the newer cameras provide the same quality images for monitoring disease progression.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this study could show that newer, wider-angle cameras are just as good as the standard for monitoring inherited retinal diseases, potentially improving convenience for patients.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage observational study (50 participants) comparing imaging devices, not testing a treatment. The results may not apply to all patients or diseases.
