RIIO seeks to influence eye health policy in Rwanda and the Region via evidence and advocacy. Research is a key element of what we do and in 2015, we were thrilled to complete the first National Survey of Blindness in Rwanda.
Our other research areas have revolved around the knowledge, attitudes and practices of our clients, primary eye care research, clinical trials such as the management of allergic conjunctivitis, and posterior segment eye disease research.
RIIO doctors regularly present in regional and international congresses and have several peer reviewed publications.
