Dr. Benjamin Ghiam

Benjamin Ghiam, MD, is a board-certified ophthalmologist with specialty training in neuro-ophthalmology and expertise in strabismus surgery. He evaluates and treats complex vision problems that involve the optic nerve, brain and eye-movement pathways, including double vision and disorders that cause visual field loss or eyelid dysfunction. Dr. Ghiam’s approach is thorough and collaborative: he takes time to review medical history, explain findings in plain language, and build individualized plans that may include observation, medication, prisms, surgery or coordination with neurology and primary care.

A California native, Dr. Ghiam completed internal medicine training at UCLA Olive View, ophthalmology residency at University Hospitals Case Western Reserve (where he served as chief resident), and a fellowship in pediatric and adult neuro-ophthalmology and strabismus at the USC Roski Eye Institute/LA General/Children’s Hospital Los Angeles. He earned his medical degree from the Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine and completed undergraduate studies at UC Santa Barbara.
