Research Interests:
Kathryn Miller's research spans both pediatric ophthalmology and psychological aspects of vision care. Her work in pediatric eye conditions focuses particularly on Marfan syndrome ocular manifestations and vision therapy for children with special needs. She also maintains an active research program in eating disorders, examining diagnostic accuracy, subtyping, and familial transmission patterns. Her dual expertise enables unique interdisciplinary approaches to understanding how visual health intersects with psychological conditions.

Publication Trends:
Dr. Miller's publication record demonstrates expertise in two distinct but complementary fields. Her ophthalmology research emphasizes pediatric conditions, particularly genetic disorders affecting vision, while her psychological research focuses on methodological aspects of eating disorder diagnosis and prognosis. This cross-disciplinary approach is reflected in her clinical practice at Boston Children's Hospital where she provides specialized vision care for children with complex medical conditions.
