Advancing the Future of Eye Research.

A clinical trial is a research study that helps doctors learn how new treatments,procedures, or medications work. In ophthalmology, trials often test new eyedrops, injections, or imaging devices to see if they can improve or protect vision.

Clinical trials are how new eye treatments become approved and available to patients. Many eye medications used today were tested in clinical trials. By participating, you will be helping researchers find better ways to prevent or treat eye diseases for future patients.

Every study is reviewed and approved by an independent ethics board and government regulators. These groups make sure the study follows strict safety and ethical guidelines. Your study doctor also monitors your health throughout your participation.

In a clinical trial, visits follow a research schedule, and you may receive an investigational treatment that isn’t yet available to the public. You’ll have more frequent eye exams, and every part of your care is carefully monitored and documented for research purposes.

Each study has specific requirements based on things like your age, eye condition,and medical history. During your screening visit, we’ll perform an eye exam, review your medications, and let you know if you qualify.

No referral is needed. You can contact us directly. If you wish, we can share updates with your regular eye doctor to coordinate your care.
