- Focused on developmental eye disease, particularly amblyopia.
- Diseases causing amblyopia: strabismus (infantile esotropia) and refractive error
- Refractive plasticity, control of eye growth and pathogenesis of refractive error
- Corneal biomechanics, astigmatism
- Transgenic mice, retinal immunocytochemistry
- Eye movement recording (infrared digital video system)
- Visual acuity, stereoacuity, videokeratography, aberrometry
