Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Mohammad Pakravan's research focuses on ophthalmology, with a particular emphasis on glaucoma and related conditions. His work includes investigations into the effectiveness of various surgical interventions for childhood glaucoma, such as trabeculotomy versus combined trabeculotomy-trabeculectomy, and meta-analyses comparing different glaucoma drainage devices and cyclophotocoagulation techniques. Pakravan also studies the repeatability of corneal densitometry measurements using Scheimpflug camera technology and examines the risk of missed diagnoses of primary open-angle glaucoma by eye care providers.

His research extends to the impact of treatments on corneal health, including a randomized clinical trial on the effect of short versus long-term steroid use on corneal haze after photorefractive keratectomy. Pakravan has also explored the utility of optical coherence tomography angiography in assessing optic nerve head edema and has conducted pilot studies on novel glaucoma drainage implants. With 145 publications and 2,427 citations, his work has contributed to the understanding and management of ocular diseases, particularly among adult and pediatric populations. He leads a research group and has collaborated with several colleagues at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.
