About Me

Dr. Oleg Alekseev is a retinal specialist with a clinical focus on inherited retinal degenerations such as retinitis pigmentosa, Stargardt disease, and macular dystrophies. He offers advanced diagnostics—including electrophysiology testing and specialized imaging—and coordinates genetic testing when appropriate. His goal is to provide clear, compassionate guidance on current treatments and clinical trial options while helping patients plan for day-to-day visual needs.

In addition to patient care, Dr. Alekseev is active in translational research aimed at preserving photoreceptor function. He brings a careful, data-driven approach to each visit and makes time to answer questions so patients leave with a plan that feels understandable and achievable.
