About Christopher Teng

Christopher Teng

With many peer-reviewed publications and presentations at international meetings, Teng’s research and clinical interests include the optic nerve complex, parapapillary atrophy, glaucoma surgery, micro-invasive glaucoma surgery and complex anterior segment and cataract surgery. He has received an American Glaucoma Society Clinician Scientist Research Award, was awarded Lecturer of the Year at New York University and received The John S. Hermann, MD Memorial Award for Excellence in Teaching from The New York Eye and Ear Infirmary. On which technologies he thinks will transform the field: “I am very excited about OCT angiography, which will help improve diagnostic capability in retina and glaucoma. With this technology, doctors will be able to assess the perfusion of the macula and optic nerve to evaluate progression of disease.”
