Clinical Research

At Retinal and Ophthalmic Consultants, we are actively participating in many national clinical research trials. The efforts of our physicians, staff, and patients have led to the approval of several treatments that are now considered to be the standard of care. Involvement in clinical research offers our patients access to new and potentially superior treatments to patients with sight-threatening conditions, such as macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.

Our research staff is certified in all areas required such as photography, phlebotomy, ETDRS and EVA vision testing. In the future, we hope to expand the scope of our studies to include other subspecialties such as glaucoma and oculoplastics.
