Research Overview & Focus
The researcher focuses on understanding the dynamic interaction of tears with various surfaces, examining mechanisms likethresholds, mechanical, and chemical changes in tear films. Their work encompasses Tear Film Breakup Dynamics (Health Sciences) with studies on Glow-in-Dot concentration estimation, eye surfaces, and plant surfaces. They also investigate Dye Analysis and Toxicity (Physical Sciences), particularly fluorescence measurements using fluorescein and lissamine green. Their research bridges domains by examining how tears degrade materials, incorporating both biological and chemical factors.
