Li Wang

Li Wang, M.D., Ph.D., is a Professor in the Department of Ophthalmology at Baylor College of Medicine. His primary affiliation is the Neurosensory Center at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas. He specializes in ophthalmology with clinical and research expertise in intraocular lens calculations and refractive surgery outcomes.

Education includes an M.D. from Shanxi Medical College (1990-1991), a Ph.D. in Ophthalmology from Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg (1999), and postgraduate training including residency and fellowship at Baylor College of Medicine.

Research interests focus on optimizing surgical outcomes in cataract and refractive procedures, particularly involving intraocular lens power calculations, axial length measurement, and corneal refractive surgery analysis. His work bridges clinical practice and biophysical studies of membrane proteins and ion transport mechanisms.

Active grants include funding from the Sid Richardson Bass Charitable Corp. and Sid Richardson Foundation for research improving visual quality in surgical patients. He collaborates with international societies including the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery.

No formal advisees or lab teams are listed, though his research involves interdisciplinary teams in structural biology and clinical ophthalmology.
