ABOUT OPHTHALMOLOGY CLINICAL TRIALS

Clinical trials make new treatments possible by ensuring the safety and efficacy of promising new therapies and medical devices.

Clinical research is incredibly important as being involved in a clinical trial can shape the way ophthalmic diseases are treated in the future and can positively affect others who are suffering from the same condition. Clinical studies are essential for any new medications or devices or new indications for these therapies to be FDA-approved and used extensively by patients.

Advancements in therapies for disease through clinical trials can improve health, reduce pain and other symptoms from disease, and can increase life expectancy and quality of life.

Academy of Music for the Blind

For over 20 years, the Academy of Music for the Blind (AMB) has remained the only year-round institution in the country exclusively devoted to comprehensive music education for blind youth.

More than a school, AMB is a community where students are empowered by a shared passion and the liberating power of music — a place where blindness is not seen as a limitation but as part of the unique lens through which they view and shape the world. Many of these young musicians are affected by rare visual conditions that shape their daily lives, yet gain strength and support from comprehensive programming that not only nurtures their artistic talents but also builds confidence, resilience, and community. With the help of dedicated donors, foundations, corporate sponsors, and volunteers, the academy continues to work towards a world where economic barriers and geographic limitations don’t stand in the way of a blind child’s dreams.
