Summary

  • Dr. Neda Nikpoor is a fellowship-trained and board-certified ophthalmologist in Honolulu, HI. She specializes in vision correction procedures and performs cataract and refractive surgery, including LASIK and ICL.

    She received her medical degree from University of Oklahoma College of Medicine and then went on to the #1 ranked Bascom Palmer for residency and a fellowship in cornea and refractive surgery.

    Upon completing her formal training, Dr. Nikpoor elected to spend a year serving those less fortunate and restoring sight for the poorest of the poor. She was selected for a unique fellowship opportunity during which she performed hundreds of complex cataract and cornea surgeries and taught extensively in Asia and Africa. She worked as a clinical instructor at Stanford University while in the United States. During this time, she worked with the Himalayan Cataract Project (cureblindness.org), a non-profit organization that has revolutionized the way ophthalmology is practiced in the developing world. With 13 million people in the world blind from cataracts, Dr. Nikpoor’s passion is doing everything she can to help with the fight to eradicate global blindness.

    She has more than 10 publications and over 250 citings. She has been invited to present her work at many regional, national, and international meetings and routinely collaborates with leading technology companies to make better lasers, lenses, and other products and devices to help not only her patients, but all patients see better.
