"Howard Barnebey, MD brought his expertise to the northwest over two decades ago and has been expanding his commitment to the protection and preservation of the precious gift of sight. Treating thousands of glaucoma as well as cataract patients each year, he never forgets the importance of treating each patient with complete individual focus. Dr. Barnebey is one of only a few ophthalmologists in the northwest who is a cataract surgeon trained in the subspecialty of interventional ophthalmology. Like interventional cardiologists who are trained to use catheter technology to open clogged arteries with angioplasty and stents in the heart, interventional ophthalmologists are eye specialists trained in performing canaloplasty using similar micro-catheter technology to open and stent the natural filtration canal in the eye (Schlemm’s Canal). Specialty Eyecarè Centre was founded on the principles of Dr. Howard S. Barnebey. For over twenty years he served as a clinical assistant professor at the University of Washington teaching residents. Dr. Barnebey has been a leading contributor to ophthalmology since the early 1980’s publishing articles in major medical journals. Throughout the years he has remained consistent in his mission to educate and advance medical innovation and expand biomedical eye research, implementing the finest care possible to improve the quality of life in his patients. ""I believe that our eyes are the windows to the world and they deserve special attention. Glaucoma is a specialty where details make all the difference. The difference between perfect vision and poor vision is often measured in microns or millimeters of mercury. Having a complement of the most advanced and sophisticated equipment is important in providing a high level of premier care. However, it is the ability to interpret and apply this wonderful technology that makes all the difference in the world.""". Dr. Barnebey is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome. His top areas of expertise are Glaucoma, Ocular Hypertension (OHT), Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome, Cataract, and Trabeculectomy.

Dr. Chen decided to go to medical school after volunteering as an operating room translator for Operation Smile on one of their missions to China. Prior to that, his interests were primarily in becoming a gene therapist; researching retinal pericyte genes at Tufts, and studying cancer genes in mice while transfecting genes into cells at Cornell. Eye surgery came naturally after spending so many evenings in a Boston lab harvesting retinal pericytes from cow eyes. The opportunity to perform reconstructive eyelid surgery brings him that same satisfaction he dreamed about on that one-week facial plastic surgery mission with Operation Smile. ​ Although born in the United States to Shanghainese speaking parents, Dr. Chen was brought up multicultural, living in Hong Kong and Singapore before returning to New England for boarding school. His research and medical training then brought him slowly across the country starting in Boston, then New York City, Chicago, New Orleans, Columbus and finally Cleveland. He and his wife then relocated in 2006 to Seattle where his wife treats breast cancer at the University of Washington. With the birth of their second son, they made the decision to permanently settle down in the Puget Sound, and Washington Eye Care was formed. ​ In the past, Dr Chen spent much of his free time traveling, skiing, inline skating, figure drawing, and dragon boating. Lately, he has been enjoying that time with his family. Dr. Chen is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome. His top areas of expertise are Optic Atrophy Type 1, Optic Nerve Atrophy, Ocular Hypertension (OHT), and Glaucoma.
