For board-certified ophthalmology in Santee's Cuyamaca Street medical corridor, Cindy Ocran, MD brings a research-informed surgical practice to the third floor of Sharp Rees-Stealy. Pre-operative blood panels and post-surgical lab monitoring run through Sharp Rees-Stealy Santee Laboratory on the ground floor of the same building, streamlining the perioperative workflow. She earned her medical degree from Stony Brook University Health Sciences Center and holds privileges at Sharp Grossmont Hospital, Sharp Memorial Hospital, and Sharp Coronado Hospital. Published research in JAMA Ophthalmology and Clinics and Practice reflects her subspecialty interest in neuro-ophthalmology, while Healthgrades data shows she treats drooping eyelids and brow ptosis at a rate well above the national provider average. Routine vision referrals from community practices including Santee Family Optometry on Mission Gorge Road feed into her surgical caseload when patients require intervention beyond optometric management. Highest-complexity cases include ptosis repair with levator advancement, upper-lid blepharoplasty, and cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation.
