Gala Beykin, MD
Clinical Instructor, Ophthalmology
BioDr. Beykin is an ophthalmologist and glaucoma specialist at the Byers Eye Institute at Stanford Health Care. She is also a clinical instructor in the Department of Ophthalmology at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Beykin completed clinical and surgical training in glaucoma at the Byers Eye Institute. She specializes in caring for patients with all types of ophthalmic conditions, including glaucoma and cataract.
She has expertise in clinical trial design and implementation, and studies novel biomarkers and candidate therapeutics for vision protection and restoration in glaucoma. Her research efforts include numerous clinical trials investigating new therapies for eye conditions. Dr. Beykin has participated in multiple studies evaluating drugs targeting retinal disease such as AMD and diabetes-related vision loss, as well as ongoing clinical trials assessing new treatment strategies for neuroprotection, neuroregeneration and neuroenhancement in glaucoma. These include implants that could potentially stop or slow the progression of and help improve vision.
Dr. Beykin has published her work in numerous peer-reviewed journals, including the British Journal of Ophthalmology and Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science. She has presented her work at national and international meetings, including those for the International Symposium on Retinal Degeneration and the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology.
She is a member of the Israeli Ophthalmology Society, the Israeli Society for Eye and Vision Research, and the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology.
