Applied Vision
Universidad Complutense de Madrid
The research group "Applied Vision" is composed of proffesors and doctoral students from the Department of Optics II ( Optometry and Vision ) of the School of Optometry(Complutense University of Madrid).
This group works on projects of vision science and optometry to improve our understanding of the function of the visual system and to translate new knowledge into useful clinical test. Research topics include visual function and dysfunction, psychophysics, contact lenses, learning difficulties, etc. . Our studies are carried out in both clinical and non-clinical populations and with different profiles: children, elderly , drivers ...
Our research with patients takes place at the School of Optometry at the Complutense University in collaboration with hospitals (H. Clinico San Carlos , H. del Henares), specialized clinics ( ophthalmology , refractive surgery and optometry ), with centers schools and senior centers .
The group is linked to the teaching of a Master "Optometry and Vision" and the PhD Program "Optics , Optometry and Vision", both from the Complutense University of Madrid. It also maintains collaboration with other universities such as the University of Manchester (UK ).
