Amy Q. Lu

Overview

I am a fellowship-trained ophthalmologist specializing in the medical management of diseases of the retina and vitreous, such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal vascular disorders, and uveitis. My interest in ophthalmology began during my Ph.D. training while studying retinal development in Dr. Colin Barnstable’s lab. I stayed at Penn State for my ophthalmology residency and completed my fellowship in medical retina and uveitis at the National Eye Institute, National Institutes of Health. During this time, I evaluated patients with common retinal disorders, such as macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy, as well as rare vitreoretinal disorders. I also participated in several clinical studies related to macular degeneration, inherited retinal disease, and uveitis. In my spare time, I enjoy exploring local trails and farmers markets and spending time with my family and pet cat.
