Matthew A. Reilly's research focuses on the biomechanics and biology of the eye, particularly how the lens and its supporting structures (zonular fibers) change shape, grow, and respond to mechanical forces such as stretching, compression, and torsion. His work also extends to traumatic eye and optic nerve injuries, using animal models to study how physical trauma affects vision-related tissues. This research combines experimental lab techniques with mathematical and biomechanical modeling to understand conditions like presbyopia (age-related loss of near focus) and traumatic optic neuropathy.
