About

William Bigham, MD brings over 44 years of ophthalmologic experience to Coronado Island from his office at 1317-A Ynez Place in 92118, where he maintains board certification in ophthalmology and fellowship training in ophthalmic plastic and reconstructive surgery. He earned his medical degree from the University of Virginia School of Medicine in 1980, completed a surgical internship at National Naval Medical Center Bethesda, an ophthalmology residency at Naval Medical Center San Diego, and an oculoplastic fellowship at Wills Eye Hospital through Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University. His surgical privileges at Sharp Coronado Hospital and Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla cover cataract extraction, eyelid reconstruction, ptosis repair, and orbital procedures that draw referrals from across San Diego County. The practice also delivers cosmetic interventions including blepharoplasty and injectable neuromodulator treatments, bridging the gap between medical ophthalmology and the aesthetic services offered at Lilly Beauty Medical Spa on Orange Avenue. Published research on fibrovascular ingrowth in porous ocular implants reflects a clinical focus on prosthetic and reconstructive outcomes for trauma and tumor patients.
