About Me

Jessica A. Scott, MD, MS, is a glaucoma-trained ophthalmologist who cares for adults with glaucoma and general eye conditions in East Orange. Raised in New Jersey and inspired by her father’s ophthalmology practice, Dr. Scott pairs subspecialty training with a warm, collaborative style. After medical school at Morehouse School of Medicine and residency at The Ohio State University, she completed fellowship training in glaucoma at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Medical Center. She also holds a master’s degree in biomedical science and a public health-focused undergraduate background, which inform her emphasis on prevention and patient education. Dr. Scott takes time to explain diagnoses and options in plain language and builds individualized plans that fit each person’s goals and lifestyle. From preventive exams to complex glaucoma care, patients can expect attentive follow-up, coordinated care with other providers, and a focus on preserving vision for the long term. Outside the clinic, she enjoys reading, exploring new restaurants, and beach getaways.
