Ophthalmology Medical Writing, Statistics and Regulatory Documentation
Pubrica supports sponsors, clinical research teams and principal investigators in ophthalmology with medical writing, biostatistics and regulatory documentation. Typical projects include trials with visual-acuity and imaging endpoints, device studies and imaging-derived model development, often overlapping with medical devices and diagnostics. We prepare protocols, statistical analysis plans, clinical study reports and publications. A designated project lead coordinates these documents to keep data interpretation and messaging consistent. A common analysis question is which eye is the unit of analysis, and how the fellow eye is handled when both eyes contribute data.
We identify the reporting guideline that applies to your study design as part of the free scoping assessment.
- Writers matched by therapy area
- One designated project lead
- Applicable reporting guideline identified
- Mutual NDA on request
- You remain the named sponsor
Study Types and Standards
Typical ophthalmology studies, guidelines and analysis questions
Each therapy area has its own typical study designs, reporting guidelines and recurring analysis questions. We assign writers and statisticians to ophthalmology projects on that basis.
Study types
Typical projects
Trials with acuity and imaging endpoints, device studies, and imaging-derived model development.
The guideline
Applicable reporting standards
CONSORT 2025; STARD where a diagnostic claim is made; TRIPOD+AI for imaging models; device documentation where applicable.
Key question
Common analysis question
Which eye is the unit of analysis, and how the fellow eye is handled when both eyes are treated or contribute data.
Common Review Points
Common review points in ophthalmology submissions
These are issues that reviewers, assessors and payers often raise on ophthalmology documents. We check for them during drafting and review.
Points we check
Our Services
Ophthalmology writing, statistics and regulatory services
Services are grouped by programme stage. Medical device and diagnostic work follows MDR and IVDR rather than ICH and is covered on the relevant industry pages.
59 services, by stage of the programme
Services can be commissioned individually or as a programme. A designated project lead coordinates the protocol, analysis plan, study report and publications to keep ophthalmology data interpretation and messaging consistent.
Who we serve
Teams we support in ophthalmology
We work with these functions in sponsor organisations and research groups. The scoping assessment is written for the team that requests it.
Functions we support
Our compliance and guideline standards
Guidelines and standards we work to
Each project names the reporting guideline your study design requires and the edition used. We check that documents follow the current edition.

How it works
Five steps, starting with a free scoping assessment
We review your requirements before providing a quote.
One
Scoping assessment
Free, within two business days. We set out what the project needs, who would lead it and the estimated cost.
Two
Project lead assigned
A lead with experience in the therapy area is named before work starts and stays with the project throughout.
Three
Outline approval
You approve each section and its sources before drafting begins.
Four
Draft and review
Independent review, quality control and reference verification, each signed off separately.
Five
Handover
You receive the deliverable with its working material. Revisions are made within the agreed scope.
After
Follow-up questions
Questions on a document are answered by the person who wrote it.
Our experts
The ophthalmology project team
Writers are assigned by therapy area, not by availability. They hold a master’s degree or doctorate in life sciences, medicine or pharmacy and have at least five years of experience in the field. Regulatory writers follow the guidance that applies to each document.

What you get
Packages
Pricing per project, not per page
A 4,000-word study report and a 4,000-word overview involve different work, so we do not price by word count. The free scoping assessment gives you a project cost you can use for budgeting.
First
Scoping assessment
Free, within two business days. A written assessment of what the project needs.
Then
A written scope
Documents, standards, named team and timeline, agreed before work starts.
Quoted
Per project
One price for the agreed scope, with revisions included rather than charged per round.
Ophthalmology FAQs
Questions about ophthalmology projects
Yes. Projects are assigned by therapy area, and the lead has worked in ophthalmology. They are familiar with common questions in this area, such as how to handle the fellow eye when both eyes contribute data, and can flag likely reviewer comments before drafting starts. If no one on our panel is a suitable match, we will tell you and decline the project.
It depends on your study design rather than the therapy area. In ophthalmology, the usual guidelines are CONSORT 2025 for trials, STARD where a diagnostic claim is made and TRIPOD+AI for imaging models, with device documentation where applicable. We confirm the applicable guideline in the free scoping assessment, as writing to it from the start is easier than revising a report later.
Both eyes analysed as independent observations, which breaks the independence assumption and overstates significance. We check for this on every ophthalmology project before submission, when it is easier to correct.
Payers ask what a difference in letters gained means for patient function and independence. The scoping assessment flags this early, while the evidence plan can still include it.
Yes. A designated project lead coordinates the protocol, statistical analysis plan, clinical study report and publications to keep ophthalmology data interpretation and messaging consistent. Health-authority questions are answered by the writer of the document concerned.
We do not operate your pharmacovigilance system. We write the risk management plan and periodic reports, but case processing and reporting to authorities stay within your own PV system under your qualified person. We do not conduct trials, audit or certify GCP or GMP compliance, or claim authorship of your research. You remain the sponsor throughout.
