Glaucoma Research

Preventing people from losing vision due to glaucoma has been our goal from the beginning. Dr. Richard Lewis and his staff have been involved in clinical glaucoma research for the past 25 years. We are pleased to welcome Dr. Jacob Brubaker to the research efforts. We continue our research efforts in a variety of projects including studies to:

• Understand why people get glaucoma

• Develop tests that can make an earlier diagnosis before vision loss occurs

• explore for new medications and surgeries to more effectively treat glaucoma

​​​​​​​Our efforts have succeeded with the help of patients who volunteer for clinical trials. The studies are conducted in our office and are supervised by Dr. Lewis and his staff.
