Research
Mississippi Retina Associates, in partnership with Retina Consultants of America, is proud to announce the creation of the Retina Research Institute of Mississippi.
The Retina Research Institute of Mississippi (RRIM) is a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to researching and evaluating new treatments for retina diseases. In partnership with Retina Consultants of America, Mississippi Retina Associates is committed to fighting against blindness by participating in cutting-edge clinical trials. With over 37 years of experience, our highly qualified physicians and staff are dedicated to promoting healthy vision.
At RRIM, we utilize advanced diagnostic imaging and continuously explore new methods to improve care for patients with retinal diseases. Our focus includes blindness-causing diseases such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal venous occlusive diseases, and other retinal conditions like uveitis, vitreomacular adhesions, macular holes, ocular tumors, radiation retinopathy, and retinal detachments.
Retina research is critical for improving patient outcomes, understanding complex diseases, developing new therapies, advancing medical knowledge, and improving patient safety. Our fully staffed research division is committed to finding treatment options for patients through ophthalmic research and clinical trials. Our highly qualified physicians are actively involved in nationwide medical studies covering various eye diseases and new surgical techniques.
Clinical Trials
Clinical trials are a vital part of our research efforts and offer the opportunity to access potential treatments before they are widely available to the public. Our commitment to maintaining healthy vision at every stage of life drives our participation in nationwide clinical trials for a range of retina conditions. Our ongoing trials focus on improving outcomes for patients with retinal diseases, and if you’re interested in participating, please ask your doctor.
Our research studies also include clinical trials to test new therapies not otherwise available in Mississippi. These include cutting-edge medications, innovative devices, or surgical techniques in patients with retinal conditions. By enrolling in a clinical trial, individuals with little option for treatment or who are not seeing positive results can access promising new therapies.
Facitilies & Location
At RRIM, we prioritize the use of cutting-edge diagnostic equipment to offer our patients the most advanced retina imaging and testing available. We are the only facility in Mississippi that provides access to a comprehensive range of new technology.
