He received his bachelor's degree in Biology, summa cum laude, from Harvard College, and subsequently attended the Yale University School of Medicine.

In addition to the standard glaucoma operations he also has a special interest in combined cataract and glaucoma surgery, drainage device surgery, and ciliodestructive procedures for the more complicated and more unusual glaucomas. He is the medical director of the The Wilmer Eye Institute at Greenspring Station. Dr. Jampel's research interests include patient-oriented outcomes of glaucoma treatment and detection of glaucoma progression. He is the Principal Investigator of a National Eye Institute funded study to determine if changes in the thickness of the retina can predict visual field loss in glaucoma. Dr. Jampel serves as Associate Editor-in-Chief of Ophthalmology, one of the premier journals in the field, and the official journal of the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO). He also serves on the Preferred Practice Committee of the AAO for glaucoma and on the Eye Health and Information Task Force of the AAO.
