    Clinical Trials and Why They Matter

    Trials are the proper route for testing unproven therapies. When a suitable trial exists, we can help you understand whether you meet its criteria, what participation involves, and what questions to ask the trial team.

    Therapy Types and Their Status

    • Cell-based therapy: investigational, mainly aims to support surviving nerve cells
    • Growth-factor and neurotrophic approaches: mostly experimental, some under study for optic neuropathies
    • Gene-based therapy: approved or studied in some countries for specific inherited conditions such as LHON; availability varies
    • Electrical and light-based stimulation: investigational, evidence is limited

    What Your Visit Includes

    • Remote pre-screening and records review
    • Detailed examination and testing
    • Written recommendation, including “not suitable” when that is the honest answer
    • Side-by-side discussion of suitable options

    How Candidacy Is Assessed

    • Whether the cause is identified and controlled
    • Amount of nerve fibre still visible on OCT
    • Presence of other eye disease that could limit results
    • Genetic test results, when an inherited cause is suspected

    Excellent customer service and straight away got some improvement as my eye points stop hurting when i press them so and still on the healing process. Very experienced doctor and lovely people. Happy with it.

    I came from overseas specifically for treatment. The staff not only assisted me with transport but also made the whole experience hassle-free. The medical service was of the highest standard and I was very secure in Delhi.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is there an approved regeneration therapy for optic atrophy?

    “No approved therapy regenerates the optic nerve in general optic atrophy. Some inherited conditions have specific treatments in certain countries.”

    Are these therapies safe?

    “Safety depends on the therapy and the patient. Risks are explained individually before any decision.”

    Can therapies be combined?

    “Combination use is not established. Any combination should be planned by a specialist, never self-started.”
