New eye tests aim to catch glaucoma earlier
NCT ID NCT07210216
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 60 adults with high eye pressure or early open-angle glaucoma to see if combining advanced eye scans and vision tests can detect damage sooner. Participants will have standard eye exams plus special imaging of the optic nerve. The goal is to improve how doctors diagnose glaucoma in its earliest stages.
