Stephen Cringle

Stephen Cringle is a Professor at the UWA Medical School, affiliated with the Lions Eye Institute and based in the Centre for Ophthalmology and Visual Science. His research focuses on retinal vascular dynamics, intraocular pressure, and biomedical engineering applications in ophthalmology.

• Institution: The University of Western Australia
• Key Collaborations: Yu, D.Y., Morgan, W.H., Balaratnasingam, C.

His work explores capillary hemodynamics, endothelial cell behavior, and vascular interactions in ocular health, with applications in retinal ischemia and glaucoma treatments. Recent studies analyze spatial-temporal perfusion patterns in retinal networks, pressure dynamics across anatomical regions, and laser photocoagulation therapy optimization.

Stephen has secured significant grants from the NHMRC and National Institutes of Health for projects like developing novel glaucoma surgeries and improving retinal oxygenation. His lab collaborates on in vivo imaging and vascular modeling using advanced techniques such as confocal microscopy and OCT systems.
