About me

Dr. Shazib Haq, grew up in Southern California, spending a few years in the UK as well. He attended UC Davis and graduated with a BS in Neurobiology, Physiology, and Behavior. He then attended UC Berkeley School of Optometry for his doctorate degree. Next, Dr. Haq completed a one year residency at the Baltimore VA, where he gained significant experience managing eye disease. He also had the opportunity to rotate through subspecialties at the Wilmer Eye Institute at Johns Hopkins, gaining experience in the cornea, neuro-ophthalmology, and retina services. Following this experience, he added on a second post-graduate year of training, something that few optometrists do at the Casey Eye Institute specializing in Medical Contact Lenses.

From these unique experiences, Dr. Haq is well-versed in ocular disease and practices full-scope medical optometry. He sees patients with a variety of conditions, for vison and medical eye exams, as well as fitting standard and medical contact lenses. He also sees pediatric patients, and can perform myopia management care.

Dr. Haq lives with his wife and their dog in Portland. He loves to try new restaurants and hiking trails and would love your recommendations!
