About Me
Dr. Kelley J. Bohm is a board-certified ophthalmologist who specializes in cornea and external disease. She cares for patients with both common and complex corneal conditions and offers advanced medical and surgical options tailored to each person’s needs. Dr. Bohm completed a Cornea and External Disease Fellowship at the Wilmer Eye Institute at Johns Hopkins University after her ophthalmology residency at the Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary, University of Illinois at Chicago. She also trained at Weill Cornell Medical College, where she earned her medical degree and completed a cornea clinical research fellowship. Patients value her calm, communicative style and the time she takes to answer questions and explain next steps.
In addition to patient care, Dr. Bohm has authored peer-reviewed publications and book chapters, presented at international meetings, and received recognition including the ASCRS Foundation Resident Excellence Award and the Edward Norton Prize in Ophthalmology. Her approach blends the latest evidence with practical guidance so patients understand their options—whether managing corneal dystrophies conservatively or pursuing procedures such as partial-thickness corneal transplantation. She strives to make every visit comfortable, collaborative, and focused on clear vision.
