Ophthalmology Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that uncovers how eye diseases arise and develops new treatments and observation devices.
AboutAbout the lab
Everything related to vision is a research subject.
The lab researches the mechanisms of the various diseases that affect the eyeball, an organ with a complex and delicate structure, and develops treatments for them.
Aiming for a true integration of insights from clinical practice with high-quality research, the lab takes both research and clinical care seriously.
The lab holds that anyone who wants to think about eye diseases a little more deeply is fully qualified to join.
Key terms
- Age-related macular degeneration
- A disease in which the center of the retina (the macula) deteriorates with age, making it hard to see
- Retinitis pigmentosa
- A hereditary disease in which the light-sensing cells of the retina are gradually lost
- Adaptive optics
- A technology that cancels out distortions of the eye so that the fine structures of the retina can be seen clearly
ResearchResearch themes
Based on insights gained from careful clinical observation, the lab conducts high-quality basic medical research. Research on diseases of the retina and choroid is especially active.
