Home eye tests could save thousands from blindness
NCT ID NCT06854198
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether using telehealth tools like eye scans and pressure checks can find undiagnosed glaucoma earlier than just giving people information. It includes 2,000 Black and Hispanic adults and people with diabetes who are at higher risk. The goal is to see if remote screening leads to faster treatment and better vision outcomes.
