CORNEAL WOUND HEALING

"In vivo" models to assess the corneal wound healing process biology.

  • Different refractive surgery techniques: LASIK y PRK.

Surgery techniques for keratoconus treatment.

  • Additive surgery with different intrastromal corneal rims.
  • Collagen Cross-linking.
  • Severe corneal wounds (alkali burn) treatment with drugs and/or biomaterials.

"In vitro" corneal wound healing models.

  • Corneal wound healing modulating factors: Growth factors and Extracellular Matrix.

     

Transmittance and light scattering measurements in healthy corneas and after different types of injuries.

LIGHTING, VISION AND DRIVING

  • Measurement of the spectral distribution of illuminants.
  • Effect of the illuminants spectrum on different visual performances.
  • Visual models in LED technology as a function of age and ocular transmittance.
  • Influence of LED technology on pupil diameter.
  • Contrast gain with different types of illumination.
  • Influence of spectral distribution with different intraocular lenses in pseudophakic patients.
