Chase A. Ludwig, MD, MS

Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology (Research/Clinical Trials)
Masters Student in Biomedical Data Science, admitted Autumn 2023

Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research focuses on understanding high and pathologic myopia and their retinal sequelae, including retinal detachments, myopic traction maculopathy, and myopic macular degeneration. By leveraging informatics and big data analytics, I aim to uncover strategies that prevent and treat the progression of these complex and devastating conditions. My work takes advantage of the retina’s unique role as the only visible portion of the central nervous system, allowing for discoveries in ophthalmology that have the potential to impact broader fields of medicine.

I am actively seeking medical students and residents interested in ophthalmology or vitreoretinal surgery to assist with writing projects and data analytics. If you are passionate about advancing the understanding and management of myopia, I invite you to join me in tackling one of the most pressing global challenges in eye care.
