Current Trials - Enrollment Open

We are recruiting persons for research studies examining new drops or treatments for glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Please contact us if you have Open Angle Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension in both eyes with baseline intraocular pressures in the mid to high 20’s with or without your eye drops. The testing and examinations are free and there is compensation for time.

We are enrolling up to 100 additional participants for the P3 Study. This is an ongoing study funded through the National Institutes of Health (NIH) that Devers has pioneered for over 20 years. We examine blood flow, new visual field tests, and testing of the optic disc to detect glaucoma earlier and change in glaucoma over time. This study will last a minimum of 4 years. Participants will have 2 study visits a year. Each study visit will last approximately 2 hours. There is compensation for your time.

Cataract surgery may cause a temporary rise in the intraocular pressure (IOP) after surgery. These 'IOP spikes' can increase the risk of glaucoma, the number of postoperative visits, and the need for costly oral and topical glaucoma medications. We are using an engineering design to test 3 common interventions for their ability to decrease IOP spikes and increase the safety of cataract surgery.

We are looking for patients who have difficulty using their eye drops, or difficulty administering the drops every day. We have two newly developed devices. One aims to help doctors see how well patients are using their drops and the second aims to help patients use their drops more safety and effectively.
