Welcome

If you are here because you suffer from Degenerative Vitreous Syndrome, and you are looking for support and guidance, then we hope that in due course this site will offer you all the resources you need to help deal with the condition on a daily basis, and to make a decision on whether treatment is suitable for you.  It may also help you achieve a greater level of support from friends, family and doctors who often do not appreciate the full implications of this potentially disabling vision perception disorder.

Clinical study into microplasmin in the treatment of eye floaters

Professor Stalmans of the University Hospital, Leuven, has confirmed to us that he has recently received approval to conduct a clinical study to inject a limited number of floater patients scheduled for vitrectomy with microplasmin before the surgery. This will allow him to determine whether microplasmin may be benefical in the treatment of vitreous floaters.

One Clear Vision attended Vision 2020’s UK 2010 Conference - "Sharing the challenge, making it happen" in Birmingham

It was a highly useful and enjoyable day. There were 100s of delegates from the charity, medical and private sectors as well as exhibitors. An opportunity to network and talk about our work and we'll be following up with new contacts.
