Dr. Louis Racine MD
Dr. Louis Racine completed his medical degree and residency in ophthalmology at the Université de Montréal. Following this, he was awarded a grant by the E.A. Baker Foundation for Prevention of Blindness to complete his post-doctoral fellowship training in cornea, cataract and laser refractive surgery. He spent a first year at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, Texas, and a second year with the Rothschild Foundation in Paris, France.
He has a vast experience in treating ocular surface disease with a special interest in dry eye disease, a topic on which he frequently lectures.
