Eye tests reveal clues about neurofibromatosis

NCT ID NCT04153344

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 22, 2026 · Updated 30 times

Summary

This completed study looked at how a specific layer of the eye (the pigment epithelium) works in people with neurofibromatosis type 1. Researchers used an electro-oculogram to measure electrical activity in the eye and compared it to infrared images of the back of the eye. The goal was to see if higher-than-normal activity in this eye layer is linked to certain spots seen in the retina. Thirty participants, including patients and healthy controls, took part.
