A University of Washington graduate, Eric earned his B.S. in Molecular & Cellular Biology with a minor in Global Health before completing his orthoptic fellowship at the Vanderbilt Eye Institute at Vanderbilt University. Orthoptists partner with ophthalmologists to provide diagnosis and nonsurgical treatment of eye muscle irregularities that prevent normal binocular vision, and due to their extensive training, patients may see an orthoptist directly as part of managing their condition. Eric is bilingual, speaking English and Mandarin Chinese fluently.
What is an orthoptist?
An orthoptist is an advanced health care provider within the ophthalmic field who are specially trained in the areas of pediatric ophthalmology, neuro ophthalmology, and adult strabismus. Orthoptists specialize in the evaluation and treatment of eye movement problems and binocular vision. They are uniquely trained to treat disorders such as amblyopia, genetic disorders, and complex pediatric and adult strabismus.
Orthoptists partner with ophthalmologists to provide the diagnosis and nonsurgical treatment of irregularities of the eyes — especially those of the eye muscles — that prevent normal binocular vision. Due to their extensive training, patients may have appointments solely with an orthoptist without needing to see the ophthalmologist as part of the management of their condition.
