About the role
We are seeking a highly skilled ophthalmic surgeon to perform osteo-odonto-keratoprosthesis (OOKP), a complex procedure that restores vision in patients with severe corneal blindness who are ineligible for standard corneal transplants. This role involves collaboration with a multidisciplinary team, including oral surgeons, prosthodontists, and nurses, to deliver life-changing outcomes for patients with end-stage ocular surface disease.
Responsibilities

- Lead preoperative evaluations to assess patient suitability, including imaging (CT/MRI) and dental assessments.
- Manage postoperative care, including monitoring for complications such as glaucoma, retinal detachment, or lamina resorption.
- Collaborate with oral surgeons and prosthodontists to customize the osteo-odonto-lamina for each patient.
- Publish research and present findings at conferences to advance the field of keratoprosthesis.
- Train fellows and residents in OOKP techniques and postoperative management.
Requirements
- Board-certified ophthalmologist with fellowship training in corneal or anterior segment surgery.
- Demonstrated experience in keratoprosthesis procedures, preferably with OOKP or Boston KPro.
- Proficiency in microsurgical techniques and familiarity with dental/oral surgical principles.
- Active medical license and eligibility for hospital privileges.
- Strong publication record in peer-reviewed journals.
Benefits
- Competitive salary and performance-based bonuses.
- Malpractice insurance coverage.
- Funding for continuing medical education (CME) and conference attendance.
- Access to cutting-edge surgical facilities and research labs.
