Village-Integrated Eye Worker Trial II for Age-related Macular Degeneration, Diabetic Retinopathy, and Glaucoma

This study is testing if a more intensive eye screening program can lead to better vision and less vision loss from conditions like age-related macular degeneration (AMD), diabetic retinopathy (DR), and glaucoma. Researchers will compare two groups of people aged 60 and older. One group will receive basic vision screening, while the other will get more detailed checks using tools like Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) to look at the back of the eye, fundus photography, and eye pressure measurements. The goal is to see if the more detailed screening helps people maintain better vision over 9 years. The study is currently unclear on its status and plans to enroll 60,200 participants.

Study design
This is an interventional study with a large number of participants (60,200) that compares two different approaches to eye screening.
What's involved
Participants will have their vision checked at the beginning of the study. Some will also receive OCT, fundus photography, and intraocular pressure measurements. Vision will be checked again after 9 years.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Participants will be followed for 9 years to assess their vision.
