About Me

Dr. Marc Lustig is a board-certified pediatric ophthalmologist and strabismus surgeon who sees patients in New York City and Westchester County. He specializes in the diagnosis and surgical treatment of eye conditions in children, including strabismus (eye misalignment), amblyopia (lazy eye), cataracts, and other pediatric eye disorders. Dr. Lustig regularly employs adjustable and non-adjustable sutures for strabismus surgery to achieve optimal alignment.

Dr. Lustig earned his combined M.D. and Ph.D. degrees at the New York University School of Medicine, where his doctoral research focused on growth factors involved in the early neuro-development of the visual pathways. He completed his fellowship training in pediatric ophthalmology and strabismus at NYU Medical Center and Manhattan Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital. He serves as an attending surgeon at the New York Eye & Ear Infirmary.

Known for his energetic, child-friendly approach, Dr. Lustig takes time to explain conditions and treatment options clearly to both children and their families. He is committed to making eye exams a positive experience for young patients.
