Are you over 18 years old and healthy? If yes, you may be part of a new study. The Brien Holden Vision Institute is seeking volunteers for a clinical trial that aims to learn about the effect of caffeine based eye-drops. The trial involves eight study visits of up to 60 minutes duration. Participants will be using one drop in each eye two times per day, once in the morning and once before bed for a minimum of 5 days (maximum 7 days). Four types of eye drops will be trialled over the course of the study with two days in-between eye-drops where there will be no use of eye-drops.
