Ophthalmology Resident Research – 2010

Active research in basic and clinical and visual science is conducted in permanent laboratories at The New York Eye and Ear Infirmary and on the main campus of its major affiliate, New York Medical College. This relationship has enabled The New York Eye and Ear Infirmary to expand research activities into otherwise impossible arenas. We receive support for research through various National Institutes of Health grants and private funding. Glaucoma, laser technology, computer science and bioengineering, ocular imaging, ocular Immunology and Inflammation, retinal physiology, neuron-ophthalmology, and cornea represent major areas of research at The New York Eye and Ear Infirmary.

Residents are expected to take part in research projects while at The New York Eye and Ear Infirmary, and an annual Resident's Day allows presentation of this work. Residents are encouraged to publish their work and present it at major meetings.

This year the following Topics of Interest and Presentations were presented by Ophthalmology Residents at the 2010 Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology Conference in Ft. Lauderdale, FL.

  • Anterior Segment Imaging and Biomechanics in Glaucoma
  • Clinical Retinal Imaging
  • Corneal transplantation: penetrating and lamellar keratoplasty
  • Dry Age-related macular degeneration and drusen
  • Glaucoma Risk Factors, Biomarkers and Blood Flow
  • Glaucoma: trabecular meshwork and ciliary body
  • Functional imaging of the retina
  • Pediatric Ophthalmology
  • Pediatric ophthalmology: epidemiology
  • Posterior Imaging
  • Prevalence and Pattern of Corneal, Anterior Segment and Infectious Disease
  • Retinal development: morphology
  • Uveal Malignant Melanoma - Diagnosis and Treatment
