Edward Braunstein MD
General Ophthalmology
Dr. Edward Braunstein has spent more than four decades caring for patients' eyes, and his path to ophthalmology began somewhere a little unexpected: pediatrics. He practiced as a pediatrician before turning to eye care, drawn by a love of surgery — and that early training still shapes his practice today. Children make up a meaningful part of his patient panel, and families often find that his pediatric background shows in how comfortably he works with young patients.
Dr. Braunstein completed his residency training at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, Bronx-Lebanon Hospital, and Montefiore Medical Center. Early in his career he served as an investigator in research on lens implants, work that helped shape techniques now considered standard. He practiced in New Jersey for 25 years before being recruited to a hospital position in New York City, where he has practiced since.
Outside the office, Dr. Braunstein is a collector of antique silver. Asked what he'd be doing if he hadn't chosen ophthalmology, his answer comes quickly: dermatology.
