Illinois College of Optometry

Christine Yuan, OD

I grew up in the San Gabriel Valley in California and earned my undergraduate degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology from the University of California, San Diego. I went on to complete a master’s degree in medical science at Boston University. After working in a retina clinic as a medical assistant, I was inspired to pursue a career in optometry and attended New England College of Optometry. I am currently completing a residency in Cornea and Contact Lenses and Ocular Disease at the Illinois College of Optometry. Outside of work, I enjoy playing tennis and rock climbing with friends.
