Vision Institute is dedicated to conducting high-quality clinical trials as a way to discover new treatment alternatives. Our four clinicians specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of sight threatening diseases such as glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration. Our doctors have numerous years of research history.
Our commitment is to our patients and patient care. The opportunity to participate in clinical trials allows us to discover new treatment options and access cutting edge technology.
Although some may think that research is done in a lab by a scientist that is not an accurate perception of clinical trials and the need for patient participation. Your participation is required in order for clinical trials to be conducted allowing introduction of new drugs and treatment options. Vision Institute takes great pride in efficiently conducting trials in an ethical, harmless, and efficient method to protect patient’s rights during the clinical process.
