Specializations
Neovascular Age‑Related Macular Degeneration (nAMD)
Focused on innovative therapies for Neovascular Age‑Related Macular Degeneration, including long‑acting delivery platforms and molecular interventions that aim to stabilize vision and reduce treatment burden.
- Intravitreal anti‑VEGF agents
- Port delivery systems for sustained release
- Gene‑therapy vectors targeting retinal pigment epithelium
Clinical activities are coordinated through Virgen del Rocío University Hospital, integrating imaging and patient‑centred outcomes.
Corneal Ulceration and Healing
Investigates regenerative strategies for severe ocular surface disease, particularly Corneal trophic ulcers and associated limbal stem‑cell deficiency.
- Bioengineered corneal scaffolds
- Topical immunomodulatory formulations
- Stem‑cell based epithelial regeneration
Collaboration with local ophthalmic surgery units facilitates translational assessment of novel graft materials.
Ocular Immunology and Autoimmune Disorders
Addresses immune‑mediated ocular inflammation, with emphasis on conditions such as Behçet’s disease and systemic lupus erythematosus affecting the eye.
- Targeted biologics for non‑infectious uveitis
- Systemic immunosuppression monitoring protocols
- Biomarker‑driven therapeutic selection
Research integrates multidisciplinary rheumatology input to optimize ocular outcomes.
Neuro‑ophthalmic Disorders
Explores visual pathway dysfunctions, including optic neuropathies and visual disturbances linked to Migraine aura.
- Neuro‑protective pharmacologic agents
- Visual field rehabilitation programs
- Advanced functional imaging for diagnosis
Patient cohorts are recruited from neurology and ophthalmology clinics within the same hospital network.
Systemic Oncology with Ocular Metastases
Focuses on ocular involvement of systemic malignancies, notably Breast cancer and lung cancer metastases to the retina and choroid.
- Targeted intra‑ocular drug delivery systems
- Management of radiation‑induced retinopathy
- Multidisciplinary tumor board evaluation of ocular metastases
Collaboration with the oncology department enables coordinated care for patients with ocular metastatic disease.
