Institute

Where clinical care and scientific research have a human touch

The Switzerland Eye Research Institute (SERI) in Lugano is an ophthalmology institute founded and directed by Roberto Pinelli. Its work is built around three core principles: daily ophthalmic practice, continuous neuroscience research and genuinely patient-centred care.

SERI Lugano

A Place Dedicated to Care and Research

SERI Lugano is where patients receive treatment, but it is also a space dedicated to investigating new clinical findings and developing new treatment protocols.

Here, Roberto Pinelli has pursued his research in advanced ophthalmology for many years, while caring for his patients in a contemporary, open and light-filled environment – one that reflects an approach to the art of medicine founded on transparency, attentiveness, and the quality of each patient’s experience.

Dialogue, Empathy and Connection

At SERI Lugano, patient care is centred on the individual and on a direct relationship with the doctor – one founded on listening and genuine connection.

Only through a deep understanding of each individual is it possible to empathise with them, truly understand their needs and provide the most appropriate and effective therapeutic response.

This means caring for the body while also attending to emotional well-being, in keeping with the ancient traditions of medicine.

Palazzo Mantegazza

A Setting That Reflects the Very Idea of Care

Natural light, a connection with the surrounding landscape and the simplicity of the spaces complement a clinical practice that places patient understanding, precision and the quality of the patient experience at its heart.
