Clinical Interests for Referring Providers

My interests include thyroid eye disease (medical and surgical management), pseudotumor cerebri, orbital tumors, adult strabismus/surgery, optic neuropathy, and skull base tumor surgery.

Research Interest for Referring Providers

My primary research interest involves the characterization of visual dysfunction induced by efferent (ocular motor) disorders at both the supranuclear and infranuclear levels. Our efforts are directed at identifying predictors of spontaneous recovery as well as persistent deficits in order to target those patients who would benefit most from early intervention.
