First seen Apr 13, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study looks at how tiny fibers in the eye, called the vitreous zonule, may play a role in causing a type of glaucoma called primary angle-closure glaucoma. Researchers will use a special 3D ultrasound to take detailed pictures of these fibers in 440 people, including those with early signs of glaucoma and healthy volunteers. The goal is to find new ways to detect the disease earlier and better understand what causes it.
