Research interests
My research in Ophthalmology focuses on the evaluation and application of novel imaging methods with a special emphasis on non-invasive multimodal imaging for a better understanding of retinal disease. The use of modern optical coherence tomography (OCT), OCT angiography, microperimetry, and other imaging modalities provides new insights into retinal biomarkers and their influence on visual function. Constant technical advancements allow precise diagnosis of early microvascular changes leading to improvements in screening and therapy.
