Karolína Skorkovská

Current Research Projects

• Pupil perimetry in the diagnosis of neuro-ophthalmological diseases, glaucoma and in the examination of pupillomotor pathways and pupillomotor receptive fields (Pupil research group, University Eye Clinic, Tübingen, Germany)
• Glaucoma (perimetry in the diagnosis of glaucoma, quality of life in glaucoma patients, prostaglandins in the therapy of glaucoma and their relationship to changes in macular thickness after cataract surgrey)

Methodology

• Pupil perimetry (campimetry)
• standard, blue-on-yellow and FDT perimetry
• health-related quality of life questionnaires
• optical coherence tomography
