Summary

This long-term study is looking for the best methods to detect glaucoma and track its worsening over time, especially in people with nearsightedness (myopia) and those of African or European descent. Researchers will use advanced eye imaging to monitor changes in the back of the eye and how vision loss affects daily life. The goal is to improve glaucoma diagnosis and management for up to 3,000 participants, including healthy volunteers, glaucoma suspects, and patients.
