During my medical training, he was able to do professional practice for several months at the ophthalmology clinics of the universities of Munich, Freiburg, Vienna, Mainz, and Essen.

After the medical training, in 2017 he passed the national ophthalmology examination and the international examination of the European Ophthalmological Society in Paris, and in 2016 he obtained a doctor-economist qualification at Corvinus University.

Since 2013, he has been participating in the ophthalmology training of Hungarian, English, and German-speaking medical and dental students as a practice leader, and since 2019, he has been giving classroom lectures at the ELTE Bárczi Gusztáv Faculty of Medical Education. Since 2017, he has been an employee of the London-based International Agency for the Prevention of Blindness.

His main research areas include ophthalmic epidemiology, various corneal diseases and surgeries, and ocular surface tumors. With the help of the COST Short Term Scientific Mission research scholarship, in 2015 he was able to study the effect of corneal crosslinking treatment on corneal vessels at the Ophthalmology Clinic of the University of Cologne, and thanks to the scholarships of the European Board of Ophthalmology and the European Society of Ophthalmology, I was able to study at the Ophthalmology Clinic of the University of Saarland in Homburg in 2018 effects of femtosecond and excimer laser corneal transplantation.
