Vitreoretinal Research Group
Enhancing the understanding of retinal detachment: genetic causes, prevention, repair.
Our research over the last 29 years has been directed at investigating the genetic risk factors for retinal detachment, particularly in children where retinal detachment can be so devastating in terms of life-long visual loss.
Donations to our vitreoretinal group can help us to make huge scientific advances in the early diagnosis of Stickler syndrome and the treatment of retinal detachment. Our UK national service based within our Unit in Cambridge may be at the vanguard of world research in these fields, however, we are competing with other better-known research areas for research funds — it is a challenge!
We are extremely grateful to those who support us to help us understand retinal detachment better. Donations enable us to offer patients better sight and a much-improved quality of life.
