SUNY Optometry

SUNY research and innovation were on full display at yesterday’s Research Expo. I was thrilled to hear about the amazing research being performed at SUNY campuses across the state. These studies are driving essential discoveries that shape our healthcare, technology, environment, and beyond.

Celebrating our research excellence! SUNY highlighted various students and researchers from 10 different campuses during the SUNY Research Expo in Albany, featuring research that strengthens our contributions in agricultural, environmental, AI, and medical research fields. 🔗 suny.edu/suny-news/pres…

New research suggests myopia may be driven less by screens & more by prolonged close-up focus in low light, limiting light to the retina. A new testable hypothesis reframes how we think about prevention & treatment. 🔬👁️ sunyopt.edu/new-research-s…
