California Retina Research Foundation

California Retina Research Foundation founded in 2001 is an independent nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization. The physicians at California Retina Consultants donate their expertise and time to establishing a retinal research foundation. The foundation’s mission is to engage in clinical research aimed at uncovering the underlying causes of retinal diseases, advancing treatment options, and finding ways to prevent or cure these vision threatening conditions. Since its inception, CRRF has enrolled more than 1,000 patients in over 50 clinical trials.

In addition to funding research, a portion of CRRF proceeds is allocated to philanthropic examinations within California and through CRRF’s partnership with Surgical Eye Expeditions International (SEE International).

Our affiliation with SEE International enables physicians to collaborate on sustainable medical, surgical and educational services with the goal of restoring sight and preventing blindness in underserved areas. To date, CRRF has helped fund missions to El Progresso, Honduras and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Patient Perspective

On Clinical Trials


“I was impressed initially with the attitude of the staff. I felt like the study would benefit so many people, including myself, so it’s been extremely worthwhile. There are so few medical facilities today that are caring, and yours happens to be one of them.”
