Clinical Research
Clinical research consists of overseeing clinical studies of patients undergoing new treatments and therapies, and publishing articles in peer reviewed medical journals. Providers who actively participate in clinical research are generally at the forefront of the fields and aware of the most up-to-date advances in treatments for their patients.
The Johns Hopkins Hospital
Dr. Pradeep Ramulu is a glaucoma specialist and the director of the Wilmer Eye Institute glaucoma division. He specializes in caring for both routine and complex glaucomas, including glaucomas requiring repeat operations, glaucoma occurring in the context of corneal or retinal disease and glaucoma occurring in newborns and young children. The Sheila K. West Professor of Ophthalmology at the Wilmer Eye Institute, Dr. Ramulu grew up in suburban Chicago, and became interested in the eye during medical school, during which time he studied the genes and proteins of the eye with Dr. Jeremy Nathans. After pursuing a residency in ophthalmology and fellowship training in glaucoma, he joined Wilmer in 2006. Dr. Ramulu is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Glaucoma. His top areas of expertise are Glaucoma, Ocular Hypertension (OHT), Cataract, Iridectomy, and Cataract Removal.
