Suhas Tuli, MD is a board certified ophthalmologist and fellowship trained in corneal and refractive surgery. She specializes in refractive small incision cataract surgery with accommodating, diffractive and toric IOL's. She is one of the few corneal surgeons performing DSEK (Descemets Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty) surgery.

Dr. Tuli chose ophthalmology as her career to be "able to make a difference to people." She also chose to be an ophthalmologist because it is one of the few medical specialties that represent the fine balance between the art of surgery and the knowledge of medicine. She has published extensively in peer reviewed ophthalmology journals, and has book chapters to her credit. In addition, she has spoken at several ophthalmology meetings; her field of expertise being corneal wound healing after refractive surgery. She studied this under the tutelage of Drs. Walter Stark at the prestigious Wilmer Eye Institute at Johns Hopkins University. Dr. Tuli completed her clinical fellowship in cornea and refractive surgery from the Doheny Eye Institute at USC (University of Southern California) following her ophthalmology residency. She has performed cataract surgeries in charitable eye surgery camps in India and plans to continue doing so. She has also taught residents at the Doheny Eye Institute. She is a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery.
