Rising Stars 2025: Cataract & Refractive

The Ophthalmologist celebrates the up-and-coming wave of leaders in the cataract and refractive space

placeholder

Dedicated to individuals in the earlier stages of their career, this year’s Rising Stars feature celebrates the ophthalmologists who are beginning to make a sizable impact in the industry.

The honorees have been selected from a shortlist of names provided by our 2025 Power List alumni, some of whom have mentored or worked with these young ophthalmologists, or have heard good things about them through the ophthalmic grapevine.

For this year, we chose to focus on the cataract and refractive surgery space, where these six Rising Stars are demonstrating excellence and already making waves in a sector which, sitting at the intersection of clinical necessity and consumer demand, continues to rapidly advance.
