Nana Abrams, OD

As an optometrist at NYU Langone, I am dedicated to enhancing vision and eye health through compassionate, patient-focused care. My passion lies in utilizing advanced technology to diagnose and treat a variety of eye conditions, ensuring that my patients receive the best possible outcomes.

With over 25 years of experience in optometry, I specialize in managing conditions such as glaucoma, cataracts, conjunctivitis, corneal abrasions, and age-related macular degeneration. I also monitor for ocular complications from systemic diseases and medications, and I prescribe glasses and contact lenses. My extensive training and experience allow me to provide comprehensive care tailored to each patient's unique needs.

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of collaborating with top ophthalmologists, managing eye diseases, and co-managing surgical cases. My approach is always patient-focused; I prioritize listening to my patients' needs and working closely with them to develop effective treatment plans. Being part of the NYU Langone family allows me to offer coordinated, seamless care in partnership with my talented colleagues, ensuring the highest standard of care for my patients.

My journey into optometry began after completing my undergraduate degree, followed by earning my doctorate at SUNY Optometry. I then pursued a residency in cornea and contact lenses, training under specialists at New York Eye and Ear. This rigorous training, in addition to my ongoing commitment to professional development, have equipped me with the skills and knowledge to excel in my field. I am inspired daily by the advancements in eye care and the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in my patients’ lives.
