First seen Aug 13, 2026 · Last updated Aug 14, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study aims to measure how common glaucoma is among people aged 50 and older in the Bangkoknoi district of Bangkok, Thailand. Researchers will examine about 1,470 volunteers using standard eye tests and advanced imaging to detect signs of glaucoma and gather normal eye measurement data. The goal is to better understand the scope of glaucoma in this community and identify those at higher risk, which could inform future prevention and screening efforts.
