Dr. Christina Leong, OD | Miami
Dr. Christina Leong was born and raised in San Francisco, California, where her passion for optometry began as a technician in 2009. In 2017, she pursued her dreams by completing her training at the New England College of Optometry in Boston. During her first year of optometry school, Dr. Leong learned about Bascom Palmer Eye Institute (BPEI) as a prestigious externship site for fourth-year students. Unfortunately, in her fourth year, Dr. Leong's scheduled six-month rotation at BPEI was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Viewing challenges as opportunities, she relocated to complete her externship under Dr. Ed Boshnick, a specialist in scleral lens fitting with 30 years of experience. Under his guidance, Dr. Leong witnessed the restorative and life-changing impact of scleral lens fits on patients with irregular corneas. Since 2021, Dr. Leong has incorporated gas permeable, hybrid, scleral lens, and cosmetic soft contact lenses to mask corneal irregularities into her practice. In 2024, she achieved a full-circle moment when she was given the opportunity to practice at Optical Express at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, doing what she loves and working alongside some of the brightest minds in the field.
