During school, Dr. Lei had the opportunity to gain experience in a co-management clinic in Salt Lake City specializing in corrective surgery including LASIK, PRK, and cataract extraction. She had the opportunity to work at a Veterans Affair in Pennsylvania as well as an Indian Health Service in Oregon, gaining knowledge on the treatment and management of ocular disease including diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and macular degeneration.
In addition, Dr. Lei has gained interest in seeing kids for their eye exams as well as the field of sports vision, trying to enhance your pre-existing good vision to make it optimal for active individuals.
Outside of the clinic, you can find Erica at the gym, trying to stay active outdoors, cooking/baking, and trying new food spots. Alternatively, she also likes to spend time at home binging Netflix or Disney+.
