Professor of Ophthalmology at UC San Diego's Viterbi Family Department and glaucoma clinician-scientist Dr. Sasan Moghimi sees patients from 4060 Fourth Avenue Suite 610 in Hillcrest 92103 as part of the Shiley Eye Institute faculty. Before joining UCSD he served as professor and vice chair at Farabi Eye Hospital at Tehran University of Medical Sciences, and his research program — NIH R01-funded, with 300+ peer-reviewed publications and a position on the editorial board of Investigative Ophthalmology & Visual Science — anchors the advanced-glaucoma and angle-closure-disease workups done here, with wide-field OCT and OCTA imaging coordinated through UC San Diego Health Eye Care. Clinical focus sits squarely on glaucoma diagnosis and progression using artificial-intelligence approaches to OCTA-based vessel-density measurement, with surgical scope covering trabeculectomy, tube-shunt glaucoma drainage devices, MIGS procedures including iStent, OMNI, Hydrus, and XEN, laser cyclophotocoagulation, and combined cataract-glaucoma surgery with premium intraocular lens options. Complex cases involving concurrent retinal pathology coordinate with Retina Consultants San Diego - Hillcrest when glaucoma progression overlaps with diabetic retinopathy or macular disease requiring dual management. The outpatient surgical experience runs through the Shiley Eye Institute operating rooms on the third floor of the La Jolla facility, where MIGS and trabeculectomy cases sit alongside cataract extraction on fellow-supervised lists. The most involved cases combine failed prior filtering surgery with advanced central visual-field defects, where progression-tracking via 10-2 visual field testing and OCTA vessel-density trends drives decisions about repeat glaucoma drainage device placement.
