Official title Glaucoma Screening to Enhance At-Risk Californians' Health
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06854198
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The trial wants to see whether using eye tests like optical coherence tomography, fundus photography, and tonometry can spot undiagnosed glaucoma earlier than simply educating people or waiting to act.
- Who it's for
- It is looking for adults in California who might be at risk for glaucoma but have not been diagnosed yet.
- What's involved
- Participants will have eye tests done remotely, and some will receive only education while others get the full screening. They may also have follow‑up visits if needed.
- Time commitment
