An interventional study of Hydrogel-Based Wearable Dynamic Intraocular Pressure Sensor in Intraocular Pressure, sponsored by Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. Not yet recruiting at 1 site in China. Open to participants aged 20 Years to 40 Years, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-08-18.

The occurrence and progression of eye diseases like glaucoma are closely related to intraocular pressure fluctuations. Traditional single-point intraocular pressure measurement methods cannot reflect daily dynamic changes and are prone to missing hidden intraocular pressure peaks, limiting precise diagnosis and individualized treatment. This project aims to evaluate the wearing safety and measurement accuracy of a new low-modulus, high-strength hydrogel wearable dynamic intraocular pressure sensor. This product adopts the form of smart contact lenses, fully embedding a micro sensor into a hydrogel lens, combined with an external antenna mount and a portable recorder to continuously detect and wirelessly record even slight changes in corneal curvature, thereby obtaining real-time intraocular pressure fluctuation trend data. Based on this, the objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, measurement accuracy and tolerabilityof a wearable dynamic intraocular pressure sensor based on a novel hydrogel in healthy volunteers.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
An allergy, or another reaction of the immune system, to a substance. “Hypersensitivity to the study drug” means a known allergic reaction to it — not every side effect a medicine can have.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

Participants will undergo a single-arm evaluation of a hydrogel-based wearable dynamic intraocular pressure sensor (CLS). After 2 hours of fasting from food and water, baseline ocular safety examinations will be performed. Intraocular pressure will first be measured using non-contact tonometry (NCT) and Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT). Participants will then wear the CLS and undergo a 10-minute adaptation period before the first sensor signal is recorded. Participants will drink 1 L of water within 5 minutes. At 10-15 minutes after completion of water intake, a second sensor signal will be recorded, followed by CLS removal and repeat GAT and NCT measurements. After an interval of at least 45 minutes, NCT and GAT will be repeated, the CLS will be worn again for a 10-minute adaptation period, and a third sensor signal will be recorded. After completion of the measurement procedure, the CLS will be removed and ocular safety examinations will be repeated to evaluate changes associate
Device: Hydrogel-Based Wearable Dynamic Intraocular Pressure Sensor
The investigational device is a wearable hydrogel-based contact lens sensor designed to record electrical signals associated with changes in intraocular pressure. The CLS is worn on the study eye and allowed to stabilize for 10 minutes before signal acquisition. Sensor signals are obtained at three predefined measurement points and compared with Goldmann applanation tonometry measurements to assess measurement accuracy.
Absolute Error of CLS-Predicted Intraocular Pressure Compared With Goldmann Applanation Tonometry
The first two paired measurements of the contact lens sensor (CLS) signal and Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) intraocular pressure will be used to establish an individualized linear calibration equation for each participant. The third CLS signal will be converted to a predicted intraocular pressure using the individualized calibration equation. Absolute error is defined as the absolute difference between the CLS-predicted intraocular pressure and the corresponding GAT measurement, expressed in mmHg.
Time frame: Day 1, at the third validation measurement
Agreement Between CLS-Predicted Intraocular Pressure and Non-Contact Tonometry
At the third validation assessment, intraocular pressure predicted from the contact lens sensor (CLS) using the individualized calibration equation will be compared with the corresponding non-contact tonometry (NCT) measurement.
Time frame: Day 1, at the third validation measurement
Increased incidence of corneal fluorescent staining grade
Corneal fluorescence staining grading (National Eye Institute (NEI) standards) The cornea is divided into five regions (central, top, and above).Square, inferior, nasal side, temporal side), each area scores 0-3 points (0 = unstained, 1 = sparse dots, 2 = dense dots, 3 = fused or patchy)
Time frame: Baseline and at the post-study ocular examination on Day 1
Conjunctival congestion score
The Ora Calibra® scale was used to measure conjunctival redness in each eye. Each eye will be rated on a scale from 0 to 4, with 0 being best and 4 being the worst.
Time frame: Baseline and at the post-study ocular examination on Day 1
Change From Baseline in Tear Break-Up Time After CLS Wear
Tear break-up time (TBUT) will be measured before and after CLS wear. After blinking several times, the participant will keep the eye open while looking straight ahead, and the time until the first dry spot appears in the tear film will be recorded in seconds.
Time frame: Baseline and at the post-study ocular examination on Day 1
Change From Baseline in Best-Corrected Visual Acuity After CLS Wear
Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) will be assessed before and after CLS wear. Change from baseline will be calculated by comparing the post-study BCVA with the baseline BCVA.
Time frame: Baseline and at the post-study ocular examination on Day 1
CLDEQ-8-Based Immediate Ocular Tolerability Questionnaire
Immediate ocular tolerability during wear of the investigational contact lens sensor (CLS) will be assessed using a study-specific questionnaire adapted from the Contact Lens Dry Eye Questionnaire-8 (CLDEQ-8). The questionnaire contains eight items assessing: frequency and intensity of ocular discomfort, frequency and intensity of ocular dryness, frequency and intensity of fluctuating or blurred vision, frequency of wanting to close the eye because of discomfort, and the desire to remove the CLS because of discomfort. Frequency items are scored from 0 to 4, intensity items from 0 to 5, and the item assessing the desire to remove the CLS from 1 to 6. Higher scores indicate worse ocular tolerability.
Time frame: Immediately after completion of CLS wear on Day 1
