About Me

Dr. Aya Barzelay-Wollman is a retina specialist at UCLA Stein Eye who cares for the full spectrum of medical and surgical retinal disease. She helps patients understand complex findings in clear, practical terms and partners with them to choose treatments that fit their lives—whether that means office-based injections and lasers or advanced surgery for sight-threatening problems.

Dr. Barzelay-Wollman completed dual surgical retina fellowships at the UCLA Stein Eye Institute and Sheba Medical Center. She trained in ophthalmology at Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center, earned her MD from the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, and holds a PhD from Tel Aviv University. At UCLA, she works within a multidisciplinary team that offers leading-edge diagnostics, clinical trials, and coordinated care for inherited and acquired retinal conditions, so patients can access the latest options in one place.
