Bio
Larisa Kayserman, MD, is a vitreoretinal surgeon & medical retina specialist who began her education at New York University, where she first developed an interest in the science behind eye health. From there, Dr. Kayserman pursued and earned a medical degree at SUNY Downstate Medical School, graduating cum laude, building expertise in diagnosis, treatment, and surgery. Dr. Kayserman then completed an internship at Staten Island University Hospital, gaining hands-on experience with real patients in a clinical setting. During residency at SUNY Downstate Medical School, Dr. Kayserman rose to become chief resident, showing both clinical ability and the kind of leadership that patients notice. Most recently, Dr. Kayserman completed fellowship training in Retina-Vitreous Diseases & Surgery, an experience that sharpened her skills and gave her real confidence in this area of eye care.
Specializing in Diabetic Retinopathy and Macular Degeneration is what sets Dr. Kayserman apart, and patients notice that depth of knowledge right from the start. When it comes to retina health, catching problems early makes a real difference in outcomes, and that is exactly where Dr. Kayserman's focus lies. In addition to those specialties, Dr. Kayserman works with patients who need help with Macular Pucker, and Retinal Tears & Detachments as well. Each patient who comes in gets Dr. Kayserman's full attention and a clear, honest explanation of what is going on and what can be done about it.
Dr. Kayserman speaks Russian, Ukranian alongside English, so patients who prefer to communicate in that language can do so comfortably. Teaching is something Dr. Kayserman takes seriously, because helping the next generation of eye care professionals matters just as much as helping patients. Patients can see Dr. Kayserman at Retina Consultants of NJ Belleville, Retina Consultants of NJ Ridgewood, or EyeCare Consultants of NJ Woodland Park, making it easy to find a location that works. When it comes to eye care, Dr. Kayserman believes in being straightforward, thorough, and always putting the patient first.
