NCT ID NCT07232485
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether a simple, non-invasive eye scan can detect signs of inflammation in women with endometriosis. Researchers will compare retinal images from 100 women—half with endometriosis and half without—to see if the eyes can reveal information about this condition. The goal is to find a new way to assess endometriosis without surgery or invasive tests.
