Stanford tests new approach to save vision in common eye disease
NCT ID NCT05275972
Summary
This study compares two surgical approaches for Fuchs endothelial dystrophy, an eye condition that causes cloudy vision. Researchers are testing whether a less invasive procedure (Descemet Stripping Only with Ripasudil eye drops) works as well as the standard transplant surgery (DMEK). The trial will enroll 60 patients to see which method better improves vision and preserves healthy eye cells.
