If your registration form indicates that you are eligible for a particular study, a member of CORE will contact you to explain the study details and invite you to consider participation. You may accept or decline the invitation. If you accept, you will be invited to attend a screening session at CORE, where you will be asked to read information about that study and, if you agree to take part, to sign a consent form. You can ask questions about the study at any time. The screening session includes an examination of the front surface of your eyes and additional questions regarding your vision and general health but is not a substitute for a full eye examination. Based on the screening session, you may or may not be asked to take part in the study. |
