Investigating the pathophysiologic basis and treatment of ischemic retinal injury that leads to visual loss.

Overview Heading link

Ongoing research

Current investigations include the development of techniques to suppress retinal ischemic injury by improving oxygenation, and using vitreoperfusion to deliver glucose, oxygen, and drugs.

Impact

These investigations promise to yield innovative treatments of retinal ichemic diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy and vascular occlusions.
