We are the only center in western Connecticut for the Diabetic Retinopathy Clinical Research Network (DRCR.net), a part of the National Eye Institute/National Institutes of Health.

Ophthalmology clinical trials can vary in duration from five days to three years, depending on the disease or indication being studied. Common indications include dry eyesglaucoma, conjunctivitis, macular degenerationcataract surgeryvision correction surgery, and various retinal diseases. Some trials offer participant compensation for time and travel. The primary concern of any clinical trial is the patient’s health, safety, and welfare. All study visits are conducted by one or more of the physicians at Connecticut Eye Consultants. Participation in clinical trials provides patients with the opportunity to have access to new medications or treatments that may improve their quality of life and impact the lives of patients in the future.
