About Me

Crystal L. Zhang, MD, is a board-certified cornea and cataract specialist who provides medical and surgical care for corneal and anterior segment conditions. She offers modern cataract surgery, refractive procedures, and treatment of external eye disease, with a patient-first approach that emphasizes comfort, safety, and clear communication. Dr. Zhang completed residency at the Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University and a fellowship in Cornea, External Disease, and Refractive Surgery at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute.
