Diclofenac-Gentamicin combination eye drop versus Diclofenac eye drops after cataract surgery:

Multi-centre drug trial - from April 1993 - January 1994: A clinical trial in 260 subjects undergoing extracapsular cataract surgery. This was a single-masked, comparative, prospective, balanced-randomised study between subjects (parallel group) from seven centres (Aberdeen, Carlisle, Falmouth, Newcastle, Sunderland, Warrington and Wigan) to compare the efficacy, safety and local tolerance of Diclofenac-Gentamicin in the post operative treatment of subjects who had undergone extracapsular cataract surgery with intraocular lens implantation. We contributed to 20% of cases. Bacteriology control was conducted in Warrington .

 
             
          Blind Schools Survey - The West Bank and Gaza Strip

This work commenced in 1985 and lasted approximately two years.  It is based on a study of the epidemiology and pattern of disease causing childhood blindness in pupils at blind schools and institutions in the West Bank and Gaza Strip and presents findings in 630 patients from approximately 350 sibships and includes screening of over 2000 family members.  The work comprises full ophthalmic and medical assessment, genetic histories (including full pedigree charts on all the families) and an epidemiological survey of the region. This work was planned and undertaken following my observations of the high numbers of patients presenting in the Outpatient Department of St John's Ophthalmic Hospital, Jerusalem with visual impairment from childhood.  Resulting from this, there was a collaboration with the Medical Research Council Laboratory, Newcastle upon Tyne on the genetic mapping of some of the pedigrees resulting from my research.
