Description
In the IOBA’ controlled environment laboratory (CEL), research studies and/or clinical trials are carried out to evaluate the ocular response from the clinical and biochemical point of view to an ocular treatment or to the wearing of contact lenses, while the subjects of the study are in predetermined environmental conditions. Among the diagnostic and research services offered are the following: protocol design and advisory service in clinical trials and research studies on the ocular surface. Clinical trials and research studies on the ocular surface execution. Recruitment of patients for clinical trials and research studies. Writing of scientific articles regarding clinical trials and research studies...Other information

Companies and markets:
The CEL is a perfectly suitable facility for evaluating new treatments for different eye pathologies (e.g. dry eye syndrome). In addition, clinical studies can be performed on contact lenses to evaluate their wear tolerance.
Advantages:
Controlled environment rooms are facilities where not only the environmental conditions to which the patient is exposed are controlled but also the visual activities he or she performs. These types of rooms have been used for the assessment of eye response in a certain environmental condition. The combination of the facility’s high tech and the experience of our research team is the perfect result to provide advice to the industry in the design of clinical trials and personalized research studies that demonstrate the efficacy of the product according to its action mechanism.
