Teaching and research

Dr O'Donnell is a familiar figure to most in optometry. Her regular appearances at the BCLA for example have made her a recognisable expert in cornea and contact lens research. Her PhD, under Professor Nathan Efron, was concerned with the impact of diabetes on anterior ocular structures and, on completion, she went on to become the clinic manager for the Eurolens Research Unit at Manchester University.
