Overview

I am a clinician-scientist and retinal ophthalmologist with the primary goal of developing novel ways to diagnose and treat age-related macular degeneration (AMD). I am involved in clinical trials, including the study of innovative therapies related to macular diseases. I also specialize in treating patients with diabetic retinopathy and retinal vascular diseases. I am committed to providing the highest level of evidence-based patient care. I was awarded the Clinical Scientist Development Award from the National Eye Institute, and I received the Heed Foundation award. I am a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, Society of Heed Fellows, Society for Neuroscience and American Society for Neural Therapy and Repair.

Dr. Lad is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Entropion. Her top areas of expertise are Geographic Atrophy, Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD), Late-Onset Retinal Degeneration, and Central Serous Chorioretinopathy.

Her clinical research consists of co-authoring 86 peer reviewed articles. MediFind looks at clinical research from the past 15 years.
