About Me

Dr. Brian Chou is a board-certified neuro-ophthalmologist who cares for adults with complex problems involving the visual pathways and eye movements. He evaluates patients with optic neuropathies, idiopathic intracranial hypertension, nystagmus, double vision and other neurologic conditions that affect how the eyes move and work together. Dr. Chou completed medical school at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, followed by an internal medicine internship at Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center and an ophthalmology residency at the University of Washington Department of Ophthalmology. He then pursued fellowship training in neuro-ophthalmology at the University of California, Los Angeles. In clinic, he focuses on listening carefully, explaining findings in clear language and partnering with patients to choose treatments that fit their goals and lifestyles. He performs strabismus surgery and botulinum toxin injections in addition to non-surgical care. Dr. Chou enjoys helping patients understand complex diagnoses and working with other specialists to provide coordinated, thoughtful care.
