Introduction

My research primarily focuses on the study of visual functions and their changes during life. I investigate the relationship between visual impairment and hip fractures in elderly patients using a mobile-based vision screening application. Additionally, one of my key research areas is stereovision and the examination of childhood visual development disorders, where I work on developing mobile-based solutions for the diagnosis of amblyopia.

Other areas of interest include the development of new examination protocols for childhood vision problems and the electrophysiological study of binocular vision. These efforts aim to support the early detection and effective treatment of visual disorders.
