Clinical Practice, Precision in Decision-Making, and Research
I am an ophthalmologist and ophthalmic surgeon at Ophthalmology Department No. 63 of the Moscow City Ophthalmology Center, S.P. Botkin Moscow Multidisciplinary Scientific and Clinical Center.
My principal areas of clinical practice are the surgical management of complex cataract, intraocular lens dislocation, and glaucoma. I also use surgical and medical approaches in the treatment of corneal pathology.
