Scientists search for genetic clues to dangerous eye bulge
NCT ID NCT06949579
Summary
This study aims to understand why some people with severe nearsightedness develop an abnormal bulging at the back of the eye, called a posterior staphyloma. Researchers will compare 600 European adults with severe nearsightedness—half with this condition and half without—by collecting blood samples and detailed eye scans. The main goal is to find genetic differences that might explain who is at risk, which could help with future detection and management.
