Dr. Mung Yan Lin

Dr. Avital Okrent is a neuro-ophthalmologist and oculofacial plastic surgeon who cares for patients with conditions that affect the eyes, eyelids, and the visual pathways connecting the eyes to the brain. Her practice combines careful diagnostic work with surgical expertise, including eyelid and facial reconstruction such as blepharoplasty and ptosis repair. She frequently coordinates multidisciplinary care for complex problems like cranial nerve disorders and brain-related visual disturbances, and she values clear, collaborative communication with patients and referring clinicians. In clinic, Dr. Okrent takes time to explain findings in plain language, outline options, and help patients choose a plan that fits their goals and lifestyle. She sees both routine and urgent presentations—from double vision and eye movement disorders to benign eyelid tumors and lacrimal drainage dysfunction—and helps patients navigate recovery and long-term follow-up. Outside the operating room, she enjoys bringing a calm, personable approach that helps patients feel supported through every step of treatment.
