What is it really like to participate in a clinical trial? Previously, we have explored what clinical trials are, why they matter, and how they drive forward new treatments for macular disease, but now we are taking a more personal look.

In this episode of the My Macular and Me podcast, we are joined by Caroline, who has direct experience of research and is currently part of a clinical trial. Caroline talks us through the trial itself, how she got involved and the impact it's had on her.
