Volunteer

Our volunteers are very important to us – without them our research would not be possible.

Each year, we run 20-30 clinical studies for the global ophthalmic industry and need volunteers on a regular basis. We’re especially interested in hearing from adult contact lens wearers, but sometimes we need children, teens, spectacle wearers or people that require no vision correction.

Our studies are individually designed and the commitment required from our volunteers is variable. Some studies require just one short visit to our clinic, while others may run for over a year and require multiple visits. Some may simply ask volunteers to wear a new contact lens as they go about their regular routines, while others may require them to perform specific vision tasks or tests while in clinic with us.

Volunteers currently needed

• Study 739: Contact lens wearers (aged 8-75) for a single-visit, non-dispensing study to demonstrate the ‘real-life’ performance of over 50 contact lens brand. Find out more about this study.
  • Send us your contact lens brand and see if you are eligible to take part. 

• Study 760: Children (aged 8-15) that wear contact lenses to correct their myopia (short-sightedness) for a single-visit study comparing two contact lenses designed to slow the progression of myopia. Find out more about this study.

   

• Study 757: Children (aged 8-12) that could benefit from wearing spectacles and contact lenses to correct their myopia (short-sightedness) for a study comparing the acceptace of contact lenses and spectacles designed to slow the progression of myopia. Find out more about this study.
