Ophtalmology

The clinical and basic research activity of the Ophthalmology Research Group is dedicated to finding new treatments for blindness through the development of new therapies for macular and retinal degenerative diseases, as well as for retinal vascular diseases (diabetic retinopathy and retinal vascular occlusions). Our group consists of core researchers and clinical researchers, so there is a clear clinical translation of the ongoing research in the research group.

We have a research program for the development of new therapeutic strategies based on:

  • Cell therapies
  • Formulations of ocular solutions (LUCIA PI18 and CELLUX EuroNanoMed/AC19)
  • Biological matrices
  • Gene therapy
  • Animal models
  • Retinal cell models based on stem cell-derived organoids.

In the clinical part, the research group bases its activity on clinical trials to develop new treatments for retinal diseases as well as on the ophthalmic involvement of systemic treatments, an example is the phase II trial to test mesenchymal cells (MSV) intravitreal in non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION), the RECOGNISED study or the PULSAR study with aflibercept.
