About Me

Dr. Changyow C. Kwan is an ophthalmologist with fellowship training in glaucoma who provides comprehensive eye care for adults. She sees patients through Optic Eye Care and Huntington Hospital, offering evaluation and ongoing management for common and complex eye conditions, with a particular focus on diseases that affect the optic nerve and eye pressure.

Dr. Kwan earned her medical degree from the Feinberg School of Medicine, then completed a transitional internship at Ascension Resurrection Hospital. She went on to ophthalmology residency at UC Irvine Medical Center, followed by a glaucoma fellowship at UC Irvine. This training equipped her with expertise in medical, laser, and surgical options for glaucoma as well as cataract care in patients with coexisting disease.

Dr. Kwan is known for a thoughtful, detail-oriented approach. She takes time to explain test results and treatment choices so patients can participate actively in protecting their vision.
