Jonathan Bernstein, M.D. – Ophthalmologist

Jonathan Bernstein, M.D., is a vitreoretinal specialist. He was attracted to ophthalmology and more specifically to the field of retina-vitreous surgery because it is a unique combination of medicine and microsurgery which he finds fascinating. But more importantly, Dr. Bernstein appreciates helping others by restoring their precious gift of sight. He had wonderful and inspiring role models in his father and an uncle who were both physicians and surgeons.

Dr. Bernstein has presented at numerous conferences and conducted research, all of which further his knowledge base and provide his patients with a better understanding of their condition. Recalling the start of his ophthalmology residency, Dr. Bernstein remembers how limited treatment options were for sight-threatening diseases of the retina and vitreous.

He says, “Today, we are able to treat serious conditions like macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and uveitis with novel medications.”
