First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early study tests whether QLS-111 eye drops can improve blood flow to the back of the eye in people with non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy or certain types of glaucoma. Fourteen participants will use the drops twice daily for two weeks. The main goal is to measure changes in blood flow and vessel size using eye imaging.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

QLS-111 ophthalmic solution

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a new eye drop that improves blood flow in the back of the eye, potentially helping to manage diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma.

What could go wrong

This is a very small, early pilot study with only 14 participants. It is designed to test blood flow changes, not to prove the drops treat or cure the disease. The results may not lead to a treatment.
