Alfredo Dubra, PhD

Associate Professor of Ophthalmology
Research Interests
Our lab seeks to help the early diagnosing and monitoring progression of ocular, vascular, neurodegenerative and systemic diseases through novel non-invasive optical ophthalmic imaging. We pursue this goal through a multidisciplinary approach that integrates optics, computer science, vision science, electrical engineering and other engineering disciplines.

Professor of Ophthalmology and, by courtesy, of Pediatrics
Clinical Focus
adult strabismus, pediatric strabismus, pediatric cataracts, congenital cataracts, pediatric nasolacrimal duct disorders, pediatric ocular trauma, retinal dystrophy in children, Ophthalmology
Research Interests
My research has focused on improving the visual outcomes of children with congenital cataracts. I organized a randomized clinical trial, the Infant Aphakia Treatment Study to compare the visual outcomes of infants optically corrected with a contact lens vs. an intraocular lens after unilateral cataract surgery. A second area of research has been ocular growth after cataract surgery.

Heather E. Moss, MD, PhD

Associate Professor of Ophthalmology and of Neurology
Clinical Focus
Neuro-ophthalmology, Papilledema, pseudotumor cerebrii, idiopathic intracranial hypertension, optic neuritis, Neurology
Research Interests
I am a clinician scientist with a background in engineering, epidemiology and neuro-ophthalmology. In my research, I combine tools from these disciplines with the goal of understanding and preventing vision loss from optic nerve diseases. My focus is on papilledema, the swelling of the optic nerve head due to elevation in intracranial pressure, which we are characterizing using electrophysiological and imaging techniques. Other areas of interest are peri-operative vision loss and optic neuritis.
