About

Overview

Following her Bachelor in Optometry from the Hogeschool Utrecht (the Netherlands), Byki completed her MSc in Investigative Ophthalmology and Vision Science and PhD in Optometry at the University of Manchester. She joined City, University of London in 2009 as a lecturer, and was Program Director of the BSc Optometry course between 2015 and 2018. Currently she is module lead for Contact Lenses (UG), co-lead for Medical Retina (PG), and teaches Visual Optics and Clinical Skills. Byki is Lead for Teaching Excellence in the School of Health representing optometry. She supervises several MSc and PhD students in the field of contact lenses, myopia, and dry eye, after launching the dry eye clinic at City a few years ago. Byki was elected to Council of the British Contact Lens Association (BCLA), and is Chair of the British and Irish University and College Contact Lens Educators (BUCCLE).

Research

Research Overview

Byki completed her doctorate called 'Acute anterior ocular changes in Diabetes Mellitus' in 2008. Currently, her main area of research includes dry eye, contact lenses and macular pigment optical density in relation to foveal anatomy using optical coherence tomography. Particular interests are 1) air pollution and dry eye, 2) ortho keratology contact lenses and myopia control, and 3) ethnic variations in spatial profiling of macular pigment.

Grants

Together with Dr Manbir Nagra and Professor Chris Hull, an industry grant was obtained to design and manufacturer an optimal orthokeratology lens for myopia control (2016).
Byki was given the opportunity to be PI of a City University Doctoral Studentship (2012- 2015) to investigate the relationship between macular pigment optical density and foveal anatomic architecture in different ethnic populations.
