NCT ID NCT07153588
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study surveyed 379 eye clinic patients in Pakistan to find out how much they know about glaucoma, a disease that can cause blindness without early treatment. Participants answered a questionnaire about their eye history, knowledge of glaucoma, and beliefs about its curability. The results will help doctors create better awareness programs to encourage early eye screening.
