Name: Mera F. Haddad.

Current Position: Assistant Professor of Optometry

Participation in the RCR program:

My experience in research ethics is limited to a few workshops and short courses taken during my PhD. Therefore, this program will add to my knowledge of the responsible conduct of research from an ethical point of view.  This is valid since we deal with clinical data all the time.

My Research Ethics Related Interests:

• Cornea and contact lens wettability.

• Awareness of the population with ocular complication resulting from different ocular diseases.

• Studying the ocular changes during contact lens wear.

• The effect of smoking on the eye.
