Terri Lewis is a world renowned expert in visual development.  She is  a Professor in the Department of Psychology, Neuroscienc & Behaviour at McMaster with cross-appointments to the Department of Ophthalmology at The Hospital for Sick Children and the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences at the University  of Toronto. She has published widely on the normal development of vision during childhood and the effects of eye problems during infancy on later visual development.
