Alja Črnej Khoueir, dr. med.

Specialist oftalmolog kirurg, je uspešno opravila evropski specialistični izpit iz oftalmologije v Parizu leta 2008. S svojim delom kot oftalmolog, je pričela pod mentorstvom dr. Vladimirja Pfeiferja na Očesni kliniki v Ljubljani. Leta 2009 je pod mentorstvom prof. dr. Oliverja Findla in prof. dr. Bruce Allana delala na Moorfields Eye Hospital v Londonu, v letih 2012 do 2015 pa je bila zaposlena na Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary in Schepens Eye Research Institute, ki sta očesna bolnica in raziskovalna inštitucija za očesne bolezni, pod okriljem Harvardske fakultete v Bostonu (ZDA). V Bostonu sta bila njena mentorja ustanovitelj prvega Oddelka za bolezni roženice na svetu prof. dr. Claes H. Dohlman in vodilni za raziskave o suhem očesu in presaditvi roženice prof. dr. Reza Dana. Obe bolnici sta med najboljšimi očesnimi bolnicami na svetu, kjer delajo in se izobražujejo oftalmologi iz celega sveta. Poleg očesnih operacij je ves čas izvajala tudi raziskovalno delo in ambulantno delo na področju sprednjega očesnega segmenta. V Očesnem kirurškem centru dr. Pfeifer trenutno opravlja operacije na področju sprednjega očesnega segmenta, predvsem izvaja operacije sive mrene, sodeluje pri raziskovalnem delu in redno aktivno sodeluje na oftalmoloških kongresih doma in v tujini.
