About Me

Dr. Owen Qi is a board-certified comprehensive ophthalmologist and cataract surgeon known for personalized, patient-centered care. A San Diego native, he graduated *summa cum laude* with a B.S. in Chemical Engineering from Washington University in St. Louis, where he also earned his medical degree at the nationally ranked School of Medicine. Dr. Qi completed his internship at Mercy Hospital in St. Louis, followed by ophthalmology residency at Barnes-Jewish Hospital and Washington University. During the COVID-19 pandemic he served as attending ophthalmic surgeon at Hennepin County Medical Center, a busy level-1 trauma center, providing high-acuity care while teaching University of Minnesota residents. He now practices at Munster Eye Care Associates and is affiliated with Community Hospital–Munster. Passionate about cataract surgery, Dr. Qi offers premium intraocular lenses and the latest minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) techniques to reduce reliance on glasses and drops. He approaches every consultation as a shared decision-making experience—reviewing options in clear language and treating each patient as he would a friend or family member. Outside the clinic he enjoys personal fitness, long drives, and exploring new cuisines with loved ones.
