Biography
Konrad graduated from the University of Melbourne in 1990 and spent two years in private practice before joining the Department of Ophthalmology at Flinders University where he completed a PhD in 2000. Konrad won an NHMRC Neil Hamilton Fairley Fellowship to undertake post-doctoral training. He worked with Prof David Elliott at Bradford University on potential vision and outcome measures for refractive surgery and with Prof Ray Applegate at the University of Houston on the measurement of the optics of the eye in cataract and keratoconus.
In 2004, Konrad returned to Flinders University as a Clinical Research Fellow and was awarded an NHMRC Centre for Clinical Research Excellence grant. In 2005 he became an Associate Professor and in 2006 received an NHMRC Career Development Award. During this time, Konrad also worked as a clinician running the Cataract Assessment Clinic.
In 2009, Konrad was appointed Foundation Chair of Optometry and Vision Science.

Research and consultancy
Research interests
His research interest is ophthalmology outcomes research; incorporating optical, visual and patient-centred measurement into the holistic assessment of ophthalmic outcomes. A key element of this is the development of patient-centred measures including visual disability, quality of life and other latent traits using Rasch analysis. He has developed a number of questionnaires and is the leader of an international project to develop item banking and computer adaptive testing for measuring patient-reported outcomes in ophthalmology. Another key area of research is in the measurement of the optics of the eye and visual performance.
