Clinical trials are an essential part of the medical research process and Dr. Horn is at the forefront of
ophthalmology research. For example, Dr. Horn was one of 12 surgeons who participated in the FDA
clinical trials of the PanOptix tri-focal lens. Dr. Horn was the only Tennessee surgeon selected for the
investigation and the first surgeon in Tennessee to implant the lens.
These type of research studies allow surgeons to test new treatments, procedures, and technologies to
determine their effectiveness and improve outcomes for patients. By participating in a clinical trial,
patients have the opportunity to access cutting-edge treatments that are not yet widely available, and they
can also contribute to the advancement of ophthalmology. In addition, there is typically no additional cost
and the patient is usually compensated for their time!
