Prior to founding Atlantic Eye Physicians, she was the highest volume cataract surgeon at two large private-equity-backed practices in Connecticut, Starling Physicians and SightMD, where she served as Medical Director.​

As a cornea specialist, she also performs  corneal transplantation and manages a variety of diseases involving the surface of the eye, cornea, conjunctiva and sclera, such as ocular surface squamous neoplasia, corneal dystrophies, keratoconus, and infectious and inflammatory diseases of the cornea and sclera. 

 

Thanks to her advanced, contemporary skills and excellent surgical insight, she was the first surgeon in Connecticut to perform Corneal Tissue Addition Keratoplasty (CTAK). This innovative procedure involves adding healthy donor corneal tissue to the patient's eye to improve vision and restore the structural integrity of the cornea, offering a promising solution for individuals with keratoconus.​ 

 

In addition, she performs refractive surgery procedures such as laser-assisted in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). 

 

Doctor Feng is one of the few cornea specialists in the state with the expertise and resources to treat ocular surface squamous neoplasia, having trained under world experts in this field at Bascom Palmer.

​Doctor Feng is a prolific clinician and scholar, having published over 40 peer-reviewed full-length articles in top professional and scientific journals.
