New study to check if laser eye surgery skews eye pressure readings

NCT ID NCT07549815

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study will measure how eye pressure changes after common laser vision correction surgeries like PRK, LASIK, and femtosecond laser. Researchers will compare two measurement methods—Corvis CT and the standard applanation tonometer—in 50 people aged 19 to 35 with mild to moderate nearsightedness. The goal is to see if these surgeries affect the accuracy of eye pressure readings, which is important for detecting glaucoma later on.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to

If successful, this study could help doctors more accurately measure eye pressure after laser vision correction, improving glaucoma screening in these patients.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early observational study with only 50 participants. It does not test a treatment, so it will not directly change patient care. Results may not apply to all types of refractive surgery or patient populations.
