Clinical research serves as the cornerstone that ensures medications are authorized with the guarantees required by legislation, ultimately reaching clinical practice for the benefit of patients. It also facilitates the exploration of new uses for medications already on the market.
In essence, clinical research generates high-quality knowledge to develop therapeutic tools that improve existing ones, contributing to the prevention, alleviation, and treatment of diseases, as well as enhancing the population’s quality of life.
This effort involves a multidisciplinary team composed of optometrists, nurses, pharmacists, and IT specialists, who conduct clinical trials.
The clinical trials focus on the treatment of the following conditions:
– Age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
– Diabetic macular edema.
– Glaucoma.
