About Me
Dr. Lai Jiang is a board-certified ophthalmologist with advanced training in cornea care. He welcomes adolescent and adult patients for comprehensive evaluations and surgical or medical treatment of corneal and anterior segment problems. Dr. Jiang’s approach is practical and patient-first—he explains findings in plain language, discusses options clearly, and partners with patients to choose a plan that fits their goals, lifestyle, and recovery timeline. He also collaborates closely with optometrists and primary eye care providers to ensure seamless follow-up and long-term vision protection.
Patients see Dr. Jiang for issues ranging from blurry or fluctuating vision to scarring, infections, and progressive corneal disease. When surgery is appropriate, he offers modern techniques designed to improve comfort and speed recovery, and when non-surgical care is best, he focuses on targeted therapies that restore the ocular surface and reduce symptoms. Through his work at the Baylor Scott & White Eye Institute in Temple, he provides access to a full spectrum of diagnostics and coordinated care resources so patients can get everything they need in one place.
