Fight for Sight Project Grants
Fight for Sight is keen to support original and ground breaking research into eye disease. Project Grants of up to £170,000 are available to non-clinician scientists and qualified clinicians wishing to undertake research in all fields of ophthalmic research relevant to the aims of the Charity. In this scheme we plan to award at least one Project Grant for a clinical study where the project outcome will have an identifiable clinical benefit for people with eye disease.
A Fight for Sight Project Grant is a highly prestigious award and the selection process is rigorous. In 2010 Fight for Sight awarded 7 Project Grants from the 51 applications received.
