Clinical Trials

Treatment of retinal diseases is a rapidly changing field of medicine with new techniques and procedures being developed every year. Southwest Retina Specialists has been involved with research over the last six years for a variety of retina conditions, including Diabetic Macular Edema, Vitreous Hemorrhage with surgical intervention, and Age-Related Macular Degeneration.

While clinical trials are always voluntary, to qualify, patients need to go through a screening process prior to enrollment. Each studies eligibility and criteria vary.

Please contact one of our study coordinators, Kasey Dalrymple or Rachel Barbee at 806-351-1870 (ext. 1113 or ext. 1148) if you are interested in being screened or want more information on a clinical trial being conducted.
