Clinical Trials
On the National Eye Institute’s (NEI) website, you now have access to information on all completed and ongoing clinical trials supported by the NEI since 1970.
Clinical trials are the most effective means of comparing the benefits and risks of new eye disease treatments. NEI-supported clinical trials involving glaucoma are all in one easily accessible section.
The database provides in-depth information on each ongoing clinical trial and an index of investigators by name and location. It also includes a summary of each completed clinical trial, its results, complete bibliography and recommendations for clinical practice. If you are interested in participating in a NEI clinical trial, please visit the NEI website for more information.
Also, be sure to check with eye hospitals in your area. There may be local clinical trials you can participate in.
