Summary

  • I am a board-certified ophthalmologist with a subspecialty in refractive surgery. I am passionate about corneal vision correction surgery, such as LASIK, PRK, and SMILE and have numerous projects focused on developments in this field. I am also interested in applying artificial intelligence and deep machine learning methods to optimize screening and treatments of refractive surgery patients.
