NCT ID NCT04658381

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looked at 20 adults who have a flat spot in the center of their retina (fovea plana) but no known albinism or vision problems. Researchers used eye scans and genetic tests to see if these people carry gene changes linked to albinism. The goal was to better understand why some healthy people have this eye feature and whether it is related to albinism genes.
