First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This Phase 2 trial tests whether Lacripep eye drops can help the cornea heal faster and more smoothly after PRK laser eye surgery. 88 active-duty military members and their dependents will receive Lacripep in one eye and a placebo in the other. The study measures corneal thickness and vision recovery to see if the drug is safe and effective.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Lacripep ophthalmic solution (0.00025%)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a new eye drop to help the cornea heal faster and more completely after laser eye surgery.
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 2 trial with only 88 people, so results may not apply to everyone. The treatment is compared to placebo in the same person, and long-term safety is not yet known.
