Stefan Siegel

 

Whilst at university, Stefan carried out a physics research project in intraocular lens (IOL) imaging with a Shack-Hartmann sensor.  The project entailed setting up an apparatus which can detect a shift or tilt of an intraocular lens in-vitro, by means of shining a laser through the shifted or tilted lens, recording the wavefront aberrations with a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor, and comparing these with the original, undistorted image. The goal of the experiment was to simulate real-life misplacements of an intraocular lens in a patient's eye, and to accurately measure this shift or tilt without surgical means. 

 

Stefan joined the firm in 2017 and is working towards becoming both a UK and European qualified patent attorney.
