This is a friendly informal event where you (and your family, friends and/or carers) will have the opportunity to hear about research taking place at Moorfields Eye Hospital and UCL Institute of Ophthalmology, ask the researcher questions, and provide input that could shape the future of eye care research.
Details of our next coffee hour event are as follows:
Date: Wednesday 27th May 2026
Time: 3-4pm
Location: Coffee Junction, 42 Provost Street, London N1 7SU, (a 5-minute walk from Moorfields Eye Hospital)
Presenting at our next Coffee Hour will be Prof Jugnoo Rahi, Professor of Ophthalmic Epidemiology at UCL GOS Institute of Child Health and Honorary Consultant Ophthalmologist at Great Ormond Street Hospital. She leads the Vision and Eyes Group at UCL studying visual health and vision impairment in childhood using population health sciences.
Her research aims to improve outcomes for babies, children and young people with eye conditions and/or vision impairment through better clinical care and treatment, better services, and better policies. The aim is also to improve the visual health of all children and raise the profile of visual health and vision impairment within the general health landscape. Jugnoo will discuss her recent and current projects.
We will also be providing a free coffee and pastry for you to enjoy! So come along and let’s have a chat about research into eye care that is important to you.
