My name is Samer Khosrof and I’m a laser eye surgeon based in New York City. I own and operate a LASIK center in Manhattan's Columbus Circle where I see and treat patients for refractive errors using LASIK and other procedures.
I also operate a broader clinical practice called New York Eye & Retina Specialist in Brooklyn. There, I address a variety of eye diseases by drawing upon my knowledge in various sub-specialties of ophthalmology, including cornea, retina, vitreous, and neuro-ophthalmology among others.
Learn a little more about the team I work with at I Love LASIK.
I’m not only a laser eye surgeon; I am also an expert in many other eye conditions and surgeries.
I completed my residency in Ophthalmology at SUNY Downstate University. I then finished additional training including a Vitreoretinal Surgery fellowship at Tulane University Medical Center and a Retina fellowship at Massachusetts Eye & Ear Infirmary/Harvard Medical School. I have significant experience in treating complex eye diseases.
I am a regular contributor to several peer-reviewed medical journals, and my research work in anti-angiogenesis has become the basis of the latest treatments for diabetic retinopathy and macular degeneration. |
Besides my private practice, I serve as an attending surgeon at SUNY Downstate University Medical Center, Lutheran Medical Center, Methodist Hospital and New York University Medical Center.
I am an honorable member of multiple academic and professional organizations related to eye care and treatment. These include the:
- New York State Ophthalmological Society
- The Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology (ARVO)
- The American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO)
- The American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ASCRS)
- The American Society of Retina Specialists (ASRS)
