Study Summary

This trial will test if taking pictures of the optic nerve at two different eye pressures can help predict how glaucoma will progress.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for current glaucoma patients at Johns Hopkins who can undergo imaging tests. It's not suitable for those who are illiterate, hearing impaired, or don't speak English.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study aims to see if images of the optic nerve head taken at two different eye pressures can predict how glaucoma will progress in a patient.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves only imaging of the eye at different pressures, there are no direct side effects from medications or interventions typically associated with clinical trials.
