Fatma ZAGUIA

Fatma ZAGUIA is an Associate Professor in the Department of Ophthalmology at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Montreal. She specializes in ophthalmology and immunology, with a focus on inflammatory eye diseases such as uveitis and lymphoma. Her research explores therapeutic strategies for retinal disorders and the pathophysiology of ocular inflammation. She holds a fellowship in uveitis from Northwestern University and completed her ophthalmology residency at McGill University.

Her work spans clinical and translational research, including studies on immunomodulatory therapies, ocular manifestations of systemic diseases, and quality-of-life considerations in patients with uveal melanoma. Key areas of expertise include vitreoretinal lymphoma, sarcoidosis-related ocular inflammation, and surgical outcomes in retinal conditions.

Publications highlight her contributions to understanding inflammatory retinal diseases, biocompatibility of engineered tissues, and cytotoxic mechanisms in autoimmune disorders. Her research integrates clinical insights with immunological and molecular approaches to advance treatments for vision-threatening conditions.
