What is research?

Research is the systematic investigation into, and study of, a subject. At Myopia Centre, research is done to obtain more evidence for various myopia treatment options as well as improve our understanding of the myopic eye.

Why is research important?

Research plays an integral role in modern medicine. It is critical in developing new treatment options and increasing our knowledge.

Is research safe?

Contrary to common misconceptions that research participants are 'guinea pigs', there are now many guidelines in place that ensure the safety and health of research participants. These guidelines ensure the credibility and accuracy of the data and reported results and that the rights, integrity and confidentiality of the research participants are respected and protected.
