Seeking Cataract Patients with Diabetic Retinopathy for Clinical Study

Do you or does someone you know have non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy and need cataract surgery? The Eye Consultants Research Foundation is seeking cataract patients in the DFW metro region with this condition for a clinical trial. The trial is supported by Alcon Laboratories and will study the effects of Nevanac for decreasing the incidence of macular edema after cataract surgery.

You may qualify to participate if you:

– Are 18 years of age or older
– Have been diagnosed with diabetic retinopathy
– Can come in for at least 9 office visits over a 90-day period
– Are able to have cataract surgery performed

Please contact our Study Coordinator Stacy Allen by calling 877-516-4364 at our Grapevine office for more information, or to schedule an appointment. Or you can email her at sallen@eyecontx.com.

Eye Consultants of Texas has established the Eye Consultants Research Foundation to actively conduct clinical studies for a variety of eye diseases and conditions. By participating, patients in the DFW metro region will have access to medications and devices in clinical development that provide effective treatment of their particular disease or condition. Each participant receives advanced care from doctors who are experienced in conducting research in accordance with Good Clinical Practice.
