Christina Antonopoulos,
MD, FACS
Dr. Christina Antonopoulos is a proud alumna of Wellesley College. She obtained her medical degree from Boston University School of Medicine where she graduated cum laude and was inducted into the Alpha Omega Alpha national medical honor society. She went on to complete an internship in the Department of Internal Medicine at Brigham and Women’s Hospital at Harvard Medical School and completed her Ophthalmology Residency at the W.K. Kellogg Eye Center at the University of Michigan. Dr. Antonopoulos proceeded to complete a Fellowship in Vitreoretinal Disease and Surgery in the Department of Ophthalmology at Boston University Medical Center.
Dr. Antonopoulos is Board Certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology, a fellow of the American College of Surgeons, and an active member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American Society of Retina Specialists. She is the author of several peer-reviewed publications and holds particular clinical interest in treating diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, uveitis and surgical disease of the retina and vitreous. Dr. Antonopoulos furthers her research interests as a clinical investigator in the Diabetic Retinopathy Clinical Research Network, the nation's largest collaborative ophthalmic research network.
I chose to specialize in vitreoretinal surgery because it is a beautiful mixture of both medical and surgical disease. I enjoy how retinal surgery embodies the most sophisticated microsurgical technology to date. This service is a multifaceted, medical and surgical treatment program equipped to evaluate and manage all types of adult retinal disease. As a provider, I strive to be foremost compassionate, patient, and honest, which allows me to give each patient the time, attention, and information that he or she deserves. This ultimately helps the patient-physician interaction become more effective and therapeutic. My goal is to give each patient education about the disease process, standard of care therapies, and information on current literature and important clinical trials.
