Theodore Leng, MD, MS, FACS
Professor of Ophthalmology (Ophthalmology Research/Clinical Trials) and, by courtesy, of Anesthesiology, Perioperative and Pain Medicine (MSD)
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsDr. Leng was the first surgeon in California to perform a subretinal transplant of adult neural stem cells into patients with macular degeneration and is actively researching cell and gene regenerative therapies for macular degeneration, retinitis pigmentosa, Stargardt disease, and other degenerative conditions of the macula and retina. He also has an active program in imaging informatics, oculomics, and deep learning to identify patients who are at risk for eye and systemic disease. The end goal is earlier detection and rapid treatment to maximize outcomes.

Peter Levin, MD
Clinical Instructor, Ophthalmology
BioDr. Levin is a board-certified, fellowship-trained ophthalmologist with the Stanford Health Care Byers Eye Institute. He is also a clinical instructor in the Department of Ophthalmology at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Levin has focused solely on plastic and reconstructive eye surgery since 1992. He evaluates and cares for conditions such as tear duct problems and eyelid problems, including eyelid growths and cancers. As an established expert, he uses the best techniques to improve eye health and confidence in facial appearance.
Dr. Levin has published research findings in many peer-reviewed journals, including the American Journal of Ophthalmology and Archives of Ophthalmology. He has also shared his expertise at numerous ophthalmology conferences and in books such as Contemporary Issues in Ophthalmology and Ophthalmic Surgical Procedures.
He is a fellow of the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Academy of Ophthalmology. He also has a long history of teaching about ophthalmic procedures at Stanford University School of Medicine. -
Y. Howard Li
Postdoctoral Scholar, Ophthalmology
BioDr. Yuanhao Howard Li received his B.S. and Ph.D. in Brain and Cognitive Sciences at the University of Rochester, and he is currently a Postdoctoral Scholar in the Department of Ophthalmology at Stanford School of Medicine. His research is focused on how eye movements shape visual perception and how, in return, the oculomotor system utilizes eye movements to optimize visual information processing. His current projects apply eye-tracking and computational models to investigate and relationship between anatomical structure and oculomotor behavior in clinical populations with visual field impairment or abnormal motor control. This research aims to provide a better understanding of our brains and eyes, as well as potential applications in disease diagnosis and rehabilitation.
