OCULAR RESEARCH PROJECT WITH THE OPHTHALMOLOGICAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION

In pursuit of excellence within the research field, since the beginning of 2009 the María Cristina Masaveu Peterson Foundation, along with the Ophthalmological Research Foundation (FIO), has provided sponsorship and has collaborated towards the development and implementation of several ocular research projects, as well as the development and implementation of scientific knowledge, through the Fernández-Vega Ophthalmological Institute’s Visual Science Research Unit.

Ongoing research encompasses different fields of visual science such as the development of experimental models of ocular diseases, the molecular basis of ophthalmological diseases, external eye diseases, such as dry eye syndrome and neurotrophic disease and retinal diseases, such as macular degeneration.
