Biography

I am a board-certified ophthalmologist with subspecialty training in strabismus, pediatric ophthalmology, and neuro-ophthalmology, currently serving as Head of the Department of Ophthalmology and Director of the Healthcare Innovation Office at Chung-Ang University Gwangmyeong Hospital. My academic journey began with an M.D. and Ph.D. in ophthalmology from Kyung-Hee University, followed by international fellowships and academic appointments in Japan and the United Kingdom, including at the University of Cambridge and Moorfields Eye Hospital. My research interests encompass neuro-ophthalmic disorders, clinical electrophysiology, and genetic eye diseases. I have contributed to numerous publications and textbooks, and serve on editorial boards of several ophthalmic journals. I hold leadership positions within national and international ophthalmologic societies, including the Asian Neuro-Ophthalmology Society, Asia-Pacific Academy of Ophthalmology and the Korean Low Vision Society. In parallel with my clinical and academic roles, I remain committed to public health through advisory roles in blindness prevention and Paralympics. My ongoing focus is on integrating innovation, multidisciplinary research, and patient-centered care into the field of pediatric and neuro-ophthalmology.
