Developmental eye disease

  • 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

Methodology

  • Transgenic mice, retinal immunocytochemistry
  • Eye movement recording (infrared digital video system)
  • Visual acuity, stereoacuity, videokeratography, aberrometry

Scientific Cooperations

  • Cooperation 1:
    Antonio Guirao, Pablo Artal (Universidad de Murcia)
  • Cooperation 2:
    William K Stell (University of Calgary), Jez Guggenheim (University of Cardiff)
  • Cooperation 3:
    Lluis Montoliu (Centro Nacional de Biotecnología-CSIC)
  • Cooperation 4:
    Manuel Desco (Hospital Gregorio Marañón)
  • Cooperation 5:
    Pedro de la Villa (Universidad de Alcalá)
