New eye scan could reveal hidden glaucoma clues
NCT ID NCT06993597
Summary
This study is testing a new, non-contact imaging technique called Brillouin microscopy to measure the stiffness of the cornea in people with glaucoma. Researchers want to see if cornea stiffness differs between people with different types of glaucoma and healthy individuals, and if it changes after starting eye pressure-lowering drops. The goal is to find new measurements that could help doctors better understand a person's risk for glaucoma or how it might progress.
