| Clinical
Trials Our office participates in Phase II, III and
IV pharmaceutical (drug) trials. These studies involve medications
both FDA approved and currently on the market in the United States.
Patients usually receive free study medications as well as compensation
for study visits. I believe that this is an excellent opportunity
for you to become involved in the development of new medications
and in the improvement of currently marketed drugs. Patients who
participate in studies currently ongoing in my office, as well as
those who have participated in the past, have been very supportive
and appreciative of their involvement in clinical research. They
learn about their eye conditions, current and future treatments,
and they also get to be a part of the drug development process that
helps bring new therapies to millions of eye patients worldwide.
If you would like to hear more about the studies
we offer, or you would like to enroll, please telephone our
office at (310) 657-2777 , e-mail Chantelle at chantelle@macyeyecenter.com,
