Glaucoma patients: could this supplement save your sight?
NCT ID NCT07322965
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a daily supplement called BrudyGlauco (containing DHA and citicoline) can help protect eyesight in people with glaucoma. About 108 participants will take either the supplement or a placebo for 12 months. The goal is to see if it slows vision loss and improves quality of life.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: 1. Patients with chronic glaucoma (primary or secondary, open-angle or closed-angle) diagnosed in at least one eye, meeting the following criteria: Structural damage: Thinning of the neuroretinal rim, peripapillary hemorrhage, or reduction in the nerve fiber layer, confirmed by OCT or color fundus photography. Functional damage: At least 3 contiguous abnormal points outside the 95% confidence limit in the pattern deviation map of the visual field. 2. At least 4 reliable visual field (VF) tests before study enrollment. 3. Age between 50 and 75 years. 4. If both eyes meet the inclusion criteria, the eye with the worst Mean Deviation (MD) will be selected as the study eye. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Use of any vitamin or nutraceutical supplement in the month prior to screening. 2. Any condition that could alter visual field testing, including: Neurological diseases. Retinal diseases. Advanced cataracts. Treatment with Lyrica (Pregabalin) due to its effect on visual fields. 3. Hypersensitivity to acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) (cross-reactivity risk with citicoline). 4. Ocular surgery or laser treatment in the 3 months prior to enrollment or planned during the study. 5. Mean Deviation (MD) of the visual field worse than -20 dB or better than -3 dB.
