Screening for Eye Disease Research at the National Eye Institute
This study is a screening program by the National Eye Institute (NEI) to find people who might be eligible for other NEI eye research studies. It's for individuals with known eye diseases, those with unusual or undiagnosed eye conditions, or even healthy people who could serve as comparison participants. You won't receive treatment in this study. Instead, NEI doctors will examine you, review your medical and family history, and conduct tests like physical exams, blood tests, and genetic testing to understand your eye condition and see if you qualify for other research. The goal is to identify suitable participants for ongoing NEI studies.
