Dr. Matthew Chen completed his Doctorate of Optometry at the University of Waterloo and earned his degree in Biomedical Sciences. He attended the John D. Dingell Veteran Affairs Medical Center in Detroit, MI, where he focused on the diagnosis and management of ocular pathologies, including diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and age-related macular degeneration. During his training, Dr. Chen developed a strong interest in specialty contact lenses, including orthokeratology, scleral, and rigid gas-permeable lenses. He takes particular interest in their application for managing myopia and correcting keratoconus. While not at the clinic, he enjoys travelling abroad, climbing at the local climbing gym, finding his zen in the yoga studio, and cooking a meal to share with friends and family.
