Dr Christine Younan is a Clinical Senior Lecturer at the Save Sight Institute, part of the Faculty of Medicine and Health at the University of Sydney. She specializes in ophthalmology with a focus on inflammatory eye diseases, cataract epidemiology, and autoimmune-related ocular conditions. Her research integrates clinical practice with population health studies, particularly in understanding ethnic and socioeconomic disparities in eye disease prevalence.
Key research interests include uveitis treatment protocols, the impact of systemic conditions (e.g., diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis) on ocular health, and long-term outcomes of cataract surgery. She has contributed to large-scale studies like the Blue Mountains Eye Study, examining risk factors for vision-threatening conditions.
Her publications span topics such as biologic therapies for uveitis, migration-related health changes, and the role of lifestyle factors in ocular disease. While no specific awards are listed, her work demonstrates significant engagement with clinical and public health challenges in ophthalmology.
