Overview

My clinical practice focuses on the surgical treatment of patients who have cataracts, corneal problems, and those who are looking to get out of their contacts and/or glasses. I’m a professor of ophthalmology and the division chief for cornea and refractive surgery. I find my work extremely rewarding. It’s a special experience and privilege to help give patients their vision back. I grew up studying classical piano, which has interestingly been a positive factor in developing my manual dexterity for both hands. I enjoy music in general and DJ for our ophthalmology meetings across the country and the world.

Dr. Kim is highly rated in 4 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Macular Corneal Dystrophy Type 1, Fuchs Dystrophy, Corneal Dystrophy and Perceptive Deafness, and Cataract.
