What We Offer

Klinitrial provides training and certification of examiners for BCVA (best-corrected visual acuity) for participation in Phase I-IV ophthalmic clinical trials.

As well as examiner training and certification, we also provide inspection and certification of trial lanes/rooms and sites.

Associated services include protocol consultation; we have experience in developing standard and customized BCVA protocols, as well as non-BCVA protocols such as Contrast Sensitivity, Reading Acuity/Speed, and Paediatric Assessments.
