Ophthalmology-Only Clinical Research Network

Ophthalmology trials move faster when the network is built for eyes only.

ARI gives sponsors and CROs one operating relationship across six ophthalmology research sites in California and the Southwest. Experienced PIs, centralized startup systems, diverse patient access, and a seven-day preliminary feasibility readout.

Ophthalmology-only SMO 6 coordinated research sites 48-hour acknowledgement 7-day preliminary feasibility
Sponsor response model 48-hour acknowledgement

ARI confirms routing, identifies any missing details, and keeps feasibility conversations moving quickly.

Preliminary readout 7-day first-pass feasibility

Includes recommended sites, patient-access view, investigator availability, and startup considerations.

Trial track record 15+ industry-sponsored trials

Principal investigator-led programs with top-enrolling status globally across multiple specialty studies.

Therapeutic focus Retina, cornea, dry eye, TED, AMD, GA

Ophthalmology-only recruitment and site operations across common, chronic, and specialty eye disease programs.

Clinical focus

Purpose-built for ophthalmology sponsors, not retrofitted from a general site network.

ARI’s model is strongest where protocols need specialty investigators, imaging discipline, disease-specific patient access, and multi-visit retention across western markets.

Retina

AMD, geographic atrophy, diabetic eye disease, RVO, inherited retinal disease

Experienced investigators and imaging workflows for chronic retina programs, high-touch follow-up, and longitudinal endpoints.

Anterior segment

Cornea, dry eye, ocular surface, refractive and device programs

Procedure-aware site operations for visit-heavy protocols, imaging requirements, and sponsor documentation standards.

Specialty eye disease

Thyroid eye disease, rare disease, pediatric, and complex interventional studies

Centralized feasibility and referral logic help sponsors understand which sites, markets, and investigators fit first.

Sponsor pathway

Everything your internal team needs to move from first review to intake.

ARI keeps the sponsor path simple so clinical operations, medical, and procurement teams can evaluate the network and hand off without losing momentum.

Contact sponsor desk

Sponsor briefing room

Everything a sponsor team usually needs for the first internal pass.

ARI packages the network story around the questions sponsor teams actually ask first: who owns the relationship, which markets fit, how startup is managed, and what happens after intake.

Clinical ops One network relationship

One sponsor-facing team coordinates six sites instead of six parallel feasibility tracks.

Medical review Specialty-led capability

Ophthalmology-rooted investigators support rare disease, pediatric, imaging, and device-heavy programs.

Startup Centralized operating model

Standardized SOPs, training, and documentation keep activation consistent across the network.

Leadership Direct sponsor desk access

Janelle Gonzalez and Daniel Lemor stay on the sponsor path for quick handoff and escalation.

What your team can circulate right now.

  • Capabilities PDF for medical, clinical ops, and procurement review.
  • Network page organized around California and Southwest market logic.
  • Sponsor intake with a 48-hour acknowledgement and seven-day first-pass review cadence.
  • Direct sponsor desk contacts for introductions, timing questions, or internal follow-up.

Network footprint

Six active research sites across California and the Southwest.

Two geographic clusters give sponsors concentrated patient access in high-density western markets, coordinated through one network intake and one sponsor team.

California cluster

Los Angeles, Santa Monica, San Francisco

Major metropolitan research markets with diverse patient populations and strong referral networks across the state.

Los Angeles Santa Monica San Francisco

Southwest cluster

Las Vegas, Phoenix, Sun City

Large retirement-age populations with high disease prevalence — particularly valuable for age-related conditions and chronic disease programs.

Las Vegas Phoenix Sun City
Efficiency

Single intake, multi-site activation

One feasibility conversation covers all six sites. No redundant sponsor meetings or duplicated startup processes.

Patient access

30,000+ direct. 350,000+ affiliated.

Internal database of 30,000+ patients with access to 350,000+ through affiliated networks and referral systems.

Study types

Phase I–IV. Interventional. Device.

Full-phase capability including complex interventional, rare disease, pediatric, and ophthalmic device trials.
