Bio

Susel Oropesa, MD, is an ophthalmologist who earned her undergraduate degree from Yale University, setting the foundation for a career spent helping people see their best. From there, Dr. Oropesa pursued and earned a medical degree at Columbia University, building expertise in diagnosis, treatment, and surgery. Residency training at Mount Sinai Hospital was where Dr. Oropesa stepped into the chief resident role, earning recognition for her dedication and leadership. Together, these experiences have given Dr. Oropesa a strong and well-rounded foundation that patients benefit from every day.

Dr. Oropesa's specialty areas include Glaucoma Surgery and Diabetic Eye Care, and that focused training is something patients benefit from right away. Glaucoma can sneak up without warning, and the damage it causes to the optic nerve is often invisible until it is already significant, so Dr. Oropesa makes screening for it a priority. Your retina is one of the most important parts of your eye, responsible for turning light into clear images, and Dr. Oropesa focuses on keeping it as healthy as possible for every patient. In addition to those specialties, Dr. Oropesa works with patients who need help with General Ophthalmology, and Retinal Diseases as well.

Professionally, Dr. Oropesa is affiliated with the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the Connecticut Society of Eye Physicians, which reflects a commitment to keeping up with the latest in eye care. In addition to English, Dr. Oropesa also speaks Spanish, which makes it easier for patients who are more comfortable in their native language to feel at ease. Dr. Oropesa is available at ReFocus Eye Health Hamden, ReFocus Eye Health Cheshire, or ReFocus Eye Health Branford, so there are several convenient options for patients. Your eye health is important, and Dr. Oropesa is here to make sure it gets the attention it deserves.
