Sumit Sharma, MD

I am currently an Assistant Professor of Ophthalmology at the Cleveland Clinic, Cole Eye Institute. My clinical practice includes medical and surgical vitreoretinal disease as well as complex posterior segment uveitis.

My research focuses on the development of objective measures of disease activity in ocular inflammatory diseases using both currently available imaging techniques and new imaging modalities that we are developing. Additionally, I am the principal investigator for various industry sponsored clinical trials in both retinal diseases and uveitis.

I enjoy spending time with my wife, our family and friends. We both love to travel to new and exciting places around the world. In my spare time I enjoy tinkering with electronics, watching football, obsessing over my fantasy football team, playing ice hockey and watching movies.
