The VDM Project aims to unite eye floater patients and change perceptions of this condition within the medical community and the world in general. Only by doing this can we develop a safe and effective cure.
Eye floaters are dark disturbances in your vision. They may look like black or gray specks, strings, or cobwebs that drift about when you move your eyes. For some people, this can be a debilitating condition that has a significant impact on quality of life. Floaters arise from the gel that fills the center of the eye, called vitreous. Vitreous Floaters can affect the patients’ ability to concentrate, read, drive, and enjoy outdoor activities. Those who experience floaters often report symptoms of severe depression and anxiety.
While options do exist, they come with risks of life-altering complications from vision loss. Although these outcomes are very rare, the VDM Project is striving for new safe and effective cure(s), restoring clear vision to eye floater patients.
But we need your help.
La semplice iscrizione alla nostra newsletter aiuterà i nostri sforzi di ricerca.
È vitale che il vero numero di pazienti con floater oculari sia conosciuto, permettendoci di mostrare ai ricercatori medici, ai governi e all'industria quanto sia diffusa questa condizione.
Le donazioni sono essenziali per finanziare la ricerca medica.
This not-for-profit movement is currently organized by a team of volunteers. Funding is essential to research a safe cure for eye floaters.
Con un numero sufficiente di membri, possiamo chiedere un cambiamento nella comunità medica.
L'industria farmaceutica ha bisogno di numeri concreti per dedicare finanziamenti e risorse. Il nostro gruppo di pressione unificato si tradurrà in diagnosi e trattamenti migliori.
In questa fase, gli studi clinici saranno estesi agli esseri umani.
Questo può essere raggiunto solo con un gruppo di pressione attivo e con fondi sufficienti. La fase 4 porterà a una cura sicura, efficace e accessibile per questa malattia.
The VDM Project is made up of volunteers, contributing their skills for a better future.
We’re looking to recruit members in all areas, including: Translation / Design / Social Media / Philanthropy / SEO / Medicine / Business Development / Content Creation / Strategy / Web Development / Awareness & more.
If you can contribute, we would love for you to join.
