About Me

Dr. Lauren Caston is a comprehensive ophthalmologist who provides routine and surgical eye care for adults. She enjoys helping patients understand their diagnosis and treatment choices—whether that means optimizing vision with glasses, managing chronic conditions like glaucoma and diabetes-related eye disease, or planning cataract surgery. Her consultations are practical and patient-centered, with an emphasis on comfort, safety, and clear expectations. Dr. Caston earned her medical degree from the University of California, San Francisco School of Medicine and completed an ophthalmology residency at Stanford Hospital and Clinics. Within Kaiser Permanente’s integrated system, she coordinates care across specialties and guides patients through the pre- and postoperative journey.
