Biography

Dr Yvonne Ou is an ophthalmologist who specializes in treating glaucoma with medical, laser and surgical therapies. Her surgical expertise includes minimally invasive procedures, filtering surgery and drainage implant surgery. She also specializes in evaluating and treating cataracts, and she performs combined cataract and glaucoma surgery. In research, Ou is particularly interested in understanding the degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (a kind of nerve cell) that occurs in glaucoma and how to restore vision by harnessing the eye's own ability to repair. She also designs new tests to improve glaucoma diagnosis and better monitor progression.
