Welcome to the CFEH research group situated at UNSW Sydney.

The Centre for Eye Health is a joint initiative between Guide Dogs NSW/ACT and UNSW, providing state-of-the-art advanced imaging diagnostic and disease management services to patients free of charge. CFEH has amassed a large database of over 50,000 patients, most of whom have suspected or confirmed ocular disease.Ìý This provides a unique opportunity for research.

Research at the centre has two primary goals:

1. to develop new methods of detecting ocular disease earlierÌý
2. to evolve new referral pathways facilitating early detection.

Current projects at the centre include:

• Using advanced imaging technologies in early detection and management of these eye diseases.
• Developing new clinical tests and refining existing tests to improve early detection of eye disease.
• Using pattern recognition to develop automated methods to assess clinical data.
• Developing new referral pathways to create efficiencies in public health ophthalmology services.
• Assessing the effectiveness of collaborative patient management paradigms.

Centre for Eye Health researchers have published their findings in international journals and presented at several prestigious international conferences, including The Association for Research and Vision inÌýOphthalmology (ARVO), the American Academy of Optometry (AAO), and the Imaging and Perimetry Society (IPS) symposium.Ìý
