Paul S. Bernstein,
MD, PhD
Languages Spoken: English
Paul S. Bernstein, MD, PhD, divides his time between basic science retina research and a clinical practice devoted to medical and surgical treatment of diseases of the retina at the John A. Moran Eye Center at the University of Utah, where he has been a faculty member since 1995. He holds the Val A. and Edith D. Green Presidential Endowed Chair in Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences and is Moran’s Director of Clinical Research and Associate Director of Research. He has adjunct appointments in the University of Utah Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Department of Neurobiology and Anatomy, and Division of Neurosciences.
His clinical expertise includes age-related macular degeneration with special emphasis on the role of nutrition and environment in its treatment and prevention, inherited retinal and macular dystrophies, and surgical treatment of vitreoretinal disorders such as diabetic retinopathy and retinal detachments.
Dr. Bernstein did his undergraduate, MD, and PhD training at Harvard University. Highlights of his training at Harvard included a summa cum laude undergraduate degree in chemistry and a PhD thesis entitled “Biochemistry and Pharmacology of Rhodopsin Regeneration in the Vertebrate Eye” with Dr. Robert Rando of the Department of Pharmacology. His medical degree was from the Division of Health Sciences and Technology, a special joint program between Harvard Medical School and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After completing 12 years at Harvard, he moved to UCLA where he did a post-doctoral fellowship with Dr. Dean Bok in retinal cell biology and a residency in Ophthalmology at the Jules Stein Eye Institute. He then returned to Harvard for two more years for a fellowship in vitreoretinal research and surgery at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary.
Dr. Bernstein has authored over 200 peer-reviewed research articles and reviews as well as over a dozen book chapters and has served as a reviewer for numerous journals, foundations, and institutes. His lab research interests include biochemistry and biophysics of nutritional interventions against inherited and acquired ocular disorders and the genetics and imaging of macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel)—a notoriously difficult-to-diagnose hereditary disease that causes central vision loss. He is among the first researchers worldwide to test the early diagnostic capabilities of fluorescence lifetime imaging ophthalmoscopy, a new non-invasive retinal imaging technique known as FLIO.
He has received numerous awards, including the 2020 Mildred Weisenfeld Award from the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology; the Macula Society’s 2019 W. Richard Green Lecture in honor of work that has helped explain the pathogenesis of retinal diseases; and the American Academy of Ophthalmology’s 2016 Outstanding Humanitarian Service Award.
Dr. Bernstein is also dedicated to bringing modern vitreoretinal services to the developing world in a sustainable manner. Currently, access to retinal care is extremely limited in many parts of the world, and Dr. Bernstein provides hands-on specialty training to help expand the availability and quality of care. Dr. Bernstein has worked with Moran’s Global Outreach Division and the Himalayan Cataract Project to train aspiring retina specialists from Nepal, Ghana, Ethiopia, and Bhutan.

The doctor initially didn't want to stay and answer our questions but when we asked, he did and did so graciously and fully. I think doctors forget that people have questions and need to take a couple of minutes before the visit is concluded. I do advise that the front office staff do not write out letters that patients need for work. I'd much rather that the doctor or the doctor's PA or MA help with this as the letter that the front office staff wrote was not beneficial for HR at my work and I ended up coming back with a form the following week to get filled out.

Care rendered by Dr. Bernstein related to my basic visit was usual and customary, in fact, rather uneventful. I did, however, learn two additional, somewhat valuable, pieces of information regarding my diagnosis, i.e., macular degeneration. However, Dr. Bernstein's interest in me and my clinical future seemed tepid and improved only somewhat when I agreed to and participated in the subsequent research-related examinations, photography, etc. To my recollection, no information was given to me regarding what personal benefit might accrue to me as a patient with a degenerative disease for such participation by Dr. Bernstein. My agreement to participate was primarily based on the notion of helping to contribute to science with a secondary motivation that doing so might help me as a patient.

Completed test after test with no explanation as to what it was for, didn't see the Dr until 2 hrs after we were checked in. Dr Bernstein didn't Introduce the two people with him and barely spoke to us, he didn't talk about any results or anything that might be helpful for me or my situation, very poor communication skills and seems very condescending as he barks out orders to myself and his poor staff who have to put up with his poor behavior. His only concern seemed to be capturing statistical data for his research and I found my interactions with him, both this time and the last, to be painful at best. As a professionalI accountant I'm appalled by my experiences and will not be returning no matter what my needs are medically! And I would not have him training other Dr's, if I treated my clients this way They would never come back!

He met me and reviewed the tests with his assistant and then got up,to leave the room and said that we now had a plan, but I had to ask what I had and what the plan was. he then told me macular degeneration, which was a bit shocking to me. I didn't feel like he explained much about it and I left feeling a bit confused. he said to come back in 3 months for more tests. I wonder why more tests if he knows what I have.

I am still trying to understand why this was such and horrific experience for me. The doctor mentioned what the experience would be like, but it was nothing as benign as he indicated. I became so frightened and upset. Well I'm sure he did a good job I did not feel that he was reassuring, that he cared about my reaction, or actually about anything regarding my situation. I have always the Best care through the University of Utah and the Moran center, so I was trusting that I would have a good experience once again.

I have enormous respect for Dr. Bernstein, and I am immensely grateful for his skilled help. However, I did feel that he did not consider me his equal. I understand that he is vastly more knowledgable about eyes and medicine than I am, but I do much better by having information about what is happening-I felt that I should not ask too much, so as not to waste his time. I do wish he had taken a little more care when putting the instrument in my eye that held my lids open-I believe that my eyelashes were caught and they made the procedure even more uncomfortable than what I had experienced before-I did ask for a break, at one point, hoping for some relief and a change in position, but he left the instrument in my eye while I had my break,' so the irritation continued. i am grateful that he is very good at what he does.

from a technical and professional standpoint, the care is phenomenal. If I were to fault anything, it would be that the aftercare instructions were sketchy and mostly based on questions I asked rather than offered by the doctors. perhaps a handout would be helpful.

I scheduled this appt primarily to get some questions answered. He spent most of the time discussing my family history j(which I understand is important). When I started asking my questions he told me he was backed up over an hour and excused himself. Not acceptable. I don't mind waiting two hours to see an important doctor. But not fair to rush me after doing so!

Dr. Bernstein made me feel at ease and less worried about what is going on with my eye.
UofU Patient
September 05, 2016
Honestly Dr. Bernstein never asked my name, never really looked me in the eye and just talked about me to his assistant while I was in the room. He didn't have all the test results when I saw him and after I got the results instead of talking to me about it he had his assistant tell me everything was fine while she literally walked me out the door. The empirical results of the tests showed no change which was great for me, but Dr. Berstein's care was shoddy. How can you trust a doctor who doesn't know your name and won't even speak to you? I'm glad I'm laid back and was able to let the appointment run off my back because had I been stressed or gotten bad news it would have been terrible. Unfortunate lack of patient care

Dr B dictated to the scribe a change in the frequency/continuation of my two eye drops. Those instructions were overheard by us, but only casually because we were in the room.

UofU Patient
July 05, 2016
I felt that everyone, especially the anaesthesiologist Tatania, explained what I would experience during surgery as much as possible without adding too many things patients don't want to hear. To say I was apprehensive about being alert during eye surgery would a be a bit of an understatement.
UofU Patient
July 02, 2016
The person who did the initial exam was quite rough with the spoon-like apparatus that moved my eye around. The Doctor was much more gentle and used his fingers to manipulate my eye.

Did not receive an answer to my question re: cause of bright light flickering in the macula of left eye after coming in to a building from outside bright day.

I would like some information about the clinical trials and studies that are currently going on concerning macular degeneration. The usual clinic visit is updating my chart and telling me to come back in a year. I don't get much information about myself, my progress or future expectations.

Would have appreciated having been told about this phenomenon before leaving the clinic. (True, there is a reference in written material, but that's not adequate for a person under stress.)

It was a new experience to go to the Fashion Place center (which I really appreciate) which is much closer to where I live. It seemed the staff and Dr. Bernstein were all very comfortable there.

I HAVE RECOMMENDED DR BERNSTEIN TO SEVERAL PEOPLE. I JUST WISH THAT I WOULD HAVE KNOWN ABOUT HIM BEFORE MY INITIAL SURGERY. I REALLY BELIEVE THAT I WOULDN'T HAVE LOST MY SIGHT. HE TOOK CARE OF ME WHEN THE IDAHO EYE CENTER TOLD ME THERE WASN'T ANYMORE THAT THEY COULD DO FOR ME. DR BERNSTEIN WAS ABLE TO REATACH MY RETINA AND HAS CONTINUED TO KEEP MY EYE HEALTHY.

My situation is such that I do not understand exactly what it is. I'm following up with my opthamologist at home and, if he has heard from Dr Bernstein, maybe he can help me. Dr B did say I could contact Dr Fornarotto, in Pocatello, and go from there. I do have another appointment with Dr B in November, the two months he recommended for keeping up with what's going on with my vision. I also do have an appointment with Dr F in October.

I was very scared coming into this appointment. I had been told very off handedly in an eye exam that I had macular degeneration so I googled it (always a bad idea) and was terrified by what I found. I appreciated greatly the time all the staff took to examine my eyes and explain to me what was going on and put some of my concerns to rest!
UofU Patient

August 04, 2015
I have come to have extreme confidence in the Moran center. I can't imagine how it could be better in all reality.
UofU Patient
July 26, 2015
Based on the inordinately long wait to see the doc and the rushed sense I had of the exam, perhaps patients were over-booked on this occasion? Based on reputation, I feel confidence in this doc, which is the most important piece of the picture. But "bed-side" manner is increasingly important in this day and age (or so it seems, from stuff I read and naturally intuit); if he is too busy to carefully address questions/concerns, a competent, trained staff member needs to be available to discuss issues.
UofU Patient
July 21, 2015
Lots of TLC and concern for my comfort and response
UofU Patient
July 21, 2015
I have absolute confidence in Dr. Bernstein due to his through assessment and treatment of my eye problems.
UofU Patient
July 20, 2015
I still have follow up care to do but so far the care and communication with providers and staff at Moran Eye Care Center has been excellent easy for me to understand and I'll certainly recommend Moran to anyone that I hear may need this type of care

Dr Bernstein sometimes provides kind of brief answers. A man of few words.
UofU Patient
May 23, 2015
I felt like Dr. Bernstein could have been a little more patient to answer my questions. Whilst he wasn't rude or anything, I felt like he was in a hurry to get me outta there, and maybe didn't really care if I understood what was going on with my eye, when I very much wanted to completely understand it
UofU Patient

Dr. Bernstein was very good about explaining what would happen. Even though I had been through laser treatments before, I appreciated him taking the time to review the procedure with me.

I am so pleased with every aspect of my visit. I learned more about my condition in one visit there than I had in four years worth of visits to my optometrist and local retina center.

I first time was examined by Dr. Batra. He was very good- made the tests and gave the explanations. Then Dr. Bernstein evaluated all information and explain me the conditions I have.

Dr. Bernstine and Staff made me feel comfortable, explained the procedure, and I think took extra care to try and reduce potential damage to my sight. I made one phone call to schedule an appointment and I was scheduled the next day at 0815. I think the Dr. realized the necessity to move quickly to minimize the potential damage to my sight.

I like a doctor very much and know that he is very professional and knowledgeable doctor- the best in his field and I trust him. I did not want any additional test which would be used for the research purpose. I am sorry but my eye still hurts after the last test with video for the scientific purpose. I also have some questions about my condition.

I don't think I was sufficiently tested before I was given the shot in my eye.
UofU Patient
February 15, 2015
I felt that the doctor was concerned about my condition which I appreciated. I did not appreciate the doctor talking to the resident doctor more than he talked to me. When discussing treatment options the doctor was consulting more with the resident doctor than he was with me.

The fellow was great at explaining what he thought was happening, tests to make a definitive diagnosis, and then explaination of further treatment. Dr. Bernstein didn't actually spend that much time with me and spent most of his time criticizing the fellow.

October 03, 2014
I feel like I am very good hands with Dr Bernstein.. He just does not talk!!! If I want to know anything, I have to ask the questions. My first surgery was over a year ago, and I just found out that the surgery was complicated??? I just thought it was a random Retina surgery.. I still don't know why I still have swelling? I asked Dr Bernstein why and he said it was due to the complications of the surgery.. My last surgery was 6 months ago?? I left the office very down and still scared..
UofU Patient
September 26, 2014
Dr. Bernstein was caring and careful to explain any symptoms I could experience and what to do if they occur
UofU Patient

The doctor who administered the laser treatments was very patient, kind and understanding when I had to have him stop several times due to the severe pain I was experiencing.
UofU Patient
September 02, 2014
I have no doubt about Dr. Bernsteins capability. I just wish he were a little friendlier and talkative. This experience is frightening for me. I am on the younger end of macular degeneration scale. The experience when I am there is rigidly clinical. I just need a little more reassurance.
UofU Patient
September 02, 2014

Dr Bernstein wanted the joint appointment with Dr. Creel so that he could go over the results of the test by Dr. Creel. He didn't provide time for questions during his visit. I thought there would be time after the tests to discuss the findings. When I finished the tests with Dr. Creel, I was told that I was finished and needed to come back in six months. I had no opportunity for questions.
UofU Patient
January 31, 2014
This was the first time I felt like the doctor saw me like a person and not just another folder. I was scared about what was happening to me and I was crying. He actually took some time to reassure me that everything was okay.

The first time I did this survey I gave all 5's.. This is going to be my 3rd surgery in 3 months and I still don't know what is going on with my eye.. I don't even know what part the retina plays in my vision?? For his friendliness I believe he is probably as friendly as Surgeons get, they way of thinking is way above the normal person.. He told me my condition and I don't have a clue what letter it starts with.. I ask him why the 2 surgeries have not worked and he said just bad luck..
UofU Patient
December 16, 2013
great place and people
UofU Patient

The condition that I had was not explained to me though I was assured it did not threaten my vision. I had to rely on researching the diagnosis myself on line to find out what it was exactly and what to expect in the future.
UofU Patient
December 12, 2013
I WOULD HAVE LIKED FOR THE DR TO TAKE THE TIME TO CHECK MY "GOOD EYE" FOR MY OWN PEACE OF MIND, BUT I DIDN'T EVEN DARE ASK. THIS IS LIFECHANGING TO ME, AND I FELT AS IF HE COULD HAVE CARED LESS. I FELT SUPID FOR THE QUESTIONS THAT I DID ASK.

UofU Patient
October 21, 2013
No bad experience with the care providers. I suggest that an n/a column be added here. My visit was a follow-up for an injection. A number of the above questions did not apply. Explanations of my condition, treatment, etc., were clearly given by Dr. Bernstein on my initial visit.

The PA was great. Dr. Bernstein however gave me a name of what was wrong and why what had happened so far had happened but didn't tell me anything I could do to help with the situation or what to watch for. The person who showed me the way back out of the clinic told me more of what to watch for then he did. I realized what was really going on when I got home and researched it. I would have asked some questions if he had been more clear,
UofU Patient
September 30, 2013
Dr Bernstein is excellent in all aspects!
UofU Patient
September 30, 2013
I was disappointed with Dr. Bernstein's care. Dr. Crum had recommended him. It seemed he never had looked into my records and didn't know a thing about me. The only "test" he did was to have pictures taken of my macula. Previous tests had shown there wasn't a problem there. He never commented on Dr. Crum's recommendation for treatment. I had to bring it up, and then all he had to say was that I could do the treatment "if I wanted to." I basically was at the Moran for 3 hours and all he had to say was that he would turn me back over to Dr. Crum. He had suggested re-doing one test that had come back abnormally, but suggested doing it in a year. He showed no concern that my eyesight has been diminishing quite quickly.
UofU Patient
September 30, 2013

UofU Patient
August 17, 2013
I was very disappointed in my appointment and my daughter who is a nurse agreed with me. Yes, I wood like for them to find a cure for retinitis but I would also like to know if there is anything that can help save my vision.
UofU Patient
August 12, 2013
I am very fortunate to have whatever eyesight I have remaining in my old age in the hands of Dr. Bernstein. I mentioned, as I was through with my initial treatment, that I felt that I was in "Good Hands". I should have said Excellent Hands.
UofU Patient
August 09, 2013
Excellent!
UofU Patient

PA asked me a question that he should have known. End of day visit and it became rushed. I had to ask if I needed to keep using the eye drops.
UofU Patient
August 05, 2013
He has too many patients. Given the importance of the research done there and the clinic itself, I will stay with this provider. But the "bedside manner" is not great.
UofU Patient
August 05, 2013
The long wait to finally see Dr. Bernstein for a total of maybe five minutes was not acceptable--I had made my appointment several months in advance.
UofU Patient
August 05, 2013
I have the highest confidence in Dr. Bernstein. None of these questions relate to how I perceive his skill level nor my level of confidence in the care he provides. For these he would have a 5+ every time!

I wouldn't see anyone other than Dr. Bernstein.

June 17, 2013
Dr Ambati did an excellent job. I had no pain and my vision is greatly improved.
UofU Patient
June 17, 2013
Competency: Good. Manners: Not so good. 1) The final procedure was to have taken 45 min beginning at 1:00pm. The Dr. didn't show until about 3:00pm. We finished at 3:15pm. Things happen. But, no explanation was given or apology offered. Nothing was said. The patient will almost always accept the reason given, but say something. Saying nothing confirms that to the Dr. the delay meant nothing, and infers that to the Dr. the patient also means nothing. 2) When the patient's spouse is introduced, shake his/her hand.
UofU Patient
June 07, 2013
Maybe he was just having a bad day but Dr. Berstien seemed to be a little more aloof and indifferent than usual. I wish he was a little more engaging. I don't know what questions to ask. Sometimes I feel like cattle being shuffled through.
UofU Patient
May 20, 2013
only thing I found wrong was I had to ask questions to get all the information of what I needed to do and not do after the procedure. I am the type that needs it said clearly what ineed to do and not do.

UofU Patient
April 19, 2013
I feel like my doctor is a good doctor, however, I feel like he didn't spend too much time with me. He just wanted to move on to the next person. Also, I had to have a resident dilate my eyes and then the doctor came in right after and did the same thing. My eyes are very sensitive and it hurt to have that exam done twice in a row.

No response concerning my comments about further loss of peripheral vision. It's an old problem, so I had to assume nothing can be done for this.

I didn't get an explanation of the results of the dye test and nothing was said about medications. It was "as usual". I have great confidence in Dr. Bernstein and know if there is something I need to know he will tell me. I don't always know the right questions to ask.

I would like to have heard more about the plans the doctor has for my eye or what he thinks are the chances I will see again. (or maybe it's best I don't know at this time?)
UofU Patient
March 15, 2013
I would give 4's to the resident and 5's to the doctor.

Dr Bernstein is the best. I thank him and the Moran every day for restoring my vision.
UofU Patient
February 14, 2013
I will certainly recommend Moran to any and all patients that I come in contact with that may need to be seen in this capacity.
UofU Patient
February 12, 2013
GAVE AN HONEST CONCISE EVALUATION OF MY SITUATION
UofU Patient
February 12, 2013
He knows his stuff but is not a very sympathetic person. For example, "you will never regain vision in that part of your eye" ... very matter-of-fact, no sympathy. Oh well ...
UofU Patient
February 08, 2013
Always Great, new students are better than last year.
UofU Patient
February 05, 2013
Doctor B did not do a terrific job of explaining how many treatments and time would/could be involved in returning my vision to normal.
UofU Patient
February 03, 2013
GREAT

UofU Patient
January 28, 2013
perhaps the backup of patients had an impact. The physician may feel the outcome of treatment may depend on the next step. I left feeling this was my last choice to fix my sight problem whether or not it worked. I don't want false hope but reality.
UofU Patient
January 25, 2013
Dr. Bernstein was perfect. He answered all our concerns and gave excellent directions. Could have not been better in all aspects. The entire staff were very professional and organized.
UofU Patient
January 21, 2013
I am so grateful for the care I have received from the doctors at the Moran. Especially from Dr Bernstein. He has explained anything and everything I have asked. ( and often times that was a tall order) But I have never felt less than "important" when in his care.
UofU Patient
January 18, 2013
A very informative and courteous staff. The wait to see the Dr.was excessive without explanation for delay.
UofU Patient
December 18, 2012
The Dr. is always busy and does take the time to answer questions and talk you through the events. I tend to actually get more info from the other staff members during procedures that help shape my conversation with the Dr. so time with him is minimized, which in my opinion is a good thing. Having a staff who is willing to talk to you about there observations and theories and then using those in dialog with the Dr. is helpful and likely saves time on both parties.

This visit was a follow-up primarily to address additional questions that have arisen since a previous visit. I felt that Dr. Bernstein was much friendlier and willing to listen that he had been on previous visits. I left this visit feeling much better informed and more like a person than I had previously felt. As a result of the general good care and information I have received from all my visits to the Moran Eye Center, I have urged a friend to consider visiting this facility for attention to a long-standing problem with his vision and that of his wife.
UofU Patient
November 08, 2012
Dr. Bernstein is very business-like. Although, he seemed very knowledgeable, there is a wish on my part for more warmth in his interactions with patients. There were instances when I felt like an object rather than a person. I suppose that is simply his personality. Humanism is a quality that is much needed and highly desirable in the medical world. I missed it in my visit with Dr. Bernstein.
UofU Patient

excellent experience

Apart from the long wait to see Dr Bernstein, everything else was fine. He is a great Doctor
UofU Patient
September 28, 2012
Dr. Bernstein is a fantastic doctor, he has helped me through a lot of eye problems. He is very personable, concerned, and has always given me the best of care. I realize he is in great demand, but I do hope that he will be at that clinic for a long time. I give my thanks for all he has done for me
UofU Patient
September 03, 2012
I have already recommended several people to both Dr. Ambati and Dr. Bernstein.
UofU Patient
August 31, 2012
Care provider asked a lot of detailed questions and really got specific. I was asked questions that I had never been asked before which I really appreciated. Care provider also gave me feedback about my situation that I have never received before. Care provider was wonderful.
UofU Patient
August 22, 2012
He expedited the process for him to see my daughter
UofU Patient
August 18, 2012
Dr. Bernstein isn't the most personal Dr. When it came to a particular problem I never fully understood what was going on, but I trusted the Doctor.
UofU Patient
August 09, 2012
The Dr and others were great. Although a painful experience and through much double checking I feel they were very thorough and feel positive about the results.
UofU Patient
August 03, 2012
Very good.
UofU Patient
July 30, 2012
Well done; professional during the visit
UofU Patient
July 25, 2012
I waish he could provide more answers regarding my symptoms. But he is an excellent provider.
UofU Patient
July 21, 2012
We were impressed with the provider
UofU Patient
July 15, 2012
Dr Bernstein is the best!
UofU Patient
July 03, 2012
Very business like, dose the injection and little interaction. That's okay because I know his work is top.
UofU Patient
June 18, 2012
A bit concerned that more informaton wasn't shared - only gave information that was specifically asked for.
UofU Patient
June 14, 2012
DR: BERNSTAIN IS A VERY PROFESSIONAL PERSON WITH ETHICS AND PRINCIPLES. I FEEL COMFORTABLE WHEN HE IS TREATING MY EYE ISSUE AND AS A PERSON.
UofU Patient
June 01, 2012
I always have had a good experience with Dr. Bernstein and the med students.
UofU Patient
May 04, 2012
I felt the provider was a little rushed. However, it was explained to me that he had been out of the clinic and was trying to catch up with his patients. I would have like a little more time with him.
UofU Patient
May 01, 2012
I have confidence in Dr. Bernstein and I'm quite certain it wasn't his fault that I had to wait 2 1/2 hours. However, a mention of concern by him about that fact would have impressed me. I don't really care that much about the personality of the doctors I see, but I've been to other doctors who expressed concern about how long I waited whether it was their fault or not. Also, when he finally came into the examination room he had no idea why I was there and thought I was a new patient even though it was he who examined me on my previous appointment and told me to come back in a month.
UofU Patient
April 30, 2012
Dr Bernstein care was excellent
UofU Patient
April 23, 2012
I have always had wonderful communication, reassurance, and concern over my condition. , I have left feeling much better than when I arrived for my appointment.
UofU Patient
April 17, 2012
i would have like to have received more information on my current statis and a review of what I can continue to do to help my situation.
UofU Patient

Dr. Bernstein may have been too busy for any discussion of my problem.
UofU Patient
March 26, 2012
very good
UofU Patient
March 23, 2012
I would never go to another Eye Doctor unless it was something that either Dr. Zabriskie or Dr. Berstein could not take care of.
UofU Patient
March 23, 2012
As mentioned, the people are great, but I get the feeling that they are being really pushed to see as many patients as possible (not their fault - maybe an executive decision?).
UofU Patient
March 20, 2012
Dr. Bernstein inspires confidence. I actually look forward to my appointments.
UofU Patient
March 20, 2012
I am disappointed that I have to go back for a third visit because the doctor still isn't sure if there is a tear in the retina. Because of the limited choice of appointment times and the distance from my home, transportation is especially time consuming. The expense of the visits is adding up, and it is quite an uncomfortable exam. However, I have confidence in this care provider and feel that he is giving me the best treatment possible.
UofU Patient
March 20, 2012
very good
UofU Patient
March 16, 2012
I was treated very well

Sorry, but I would never subject anyone to what I experienced. It's not just one bad day. It's two previously appointed dates.

Paul S. Bernstein, MD, PhD, divides his time between basic science retina research and a clinical practice devoted to medical and surgical treatment of diseases of the retina at the John A. Moran Eye Center at the University of Utah, where he has been a faculty member since 1995. He holds the Val A. and Edith D. Green Presidential Endowed Chair in Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences and is Moran’s Director of Clinical Research and Associate Director of Research. He has adjunct appointments in the University of Utah Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Department of Neurobiology and Anatomy, and Division of Neurosciences.
His clinical expertise includes age-related macular degeneration with special emphasis on the role of nutrition and environment in its treatment and prevention, inherited retinal and macular dystrophies, and surgical treatment of vitreoretinal disorders such as diabetic retinopathy and retinal detachments.
Dr. Bernstein did his undergraduate, MD, and PhD training at Harvard University. Highlights of his training at Harvard included a summa cum laude undergraduate degree in chemistry and a PhD thesis entitled “Biochemistry and Pharmacology of Rhodopsin Regeneration in the Vertebrate Eye” with Dr. Robert Rando of the Department of Pharmacology. His medical degree was from the Division of Health Sciences and Technology, a special joint program between Harvard Medical School and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. After completing 12 years at Harvard, he moved to UCLA where he did a post-doctoral fellowship with Dr. Dean Bok in retinal cell biology and a residency in Ophthalmology at the Jules Stein Eye Institute. He then returned to Harvard for two more years for a fellowship in vitreoretinal research and surgery at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary.
Dr. Bernstein has authored over 200 peer-reviewed research articles and reviews as well as over a dozen book chapters and has served as a reviewer for numerous journals, foundations, and institutes. His lab research interests include biochemistry and biophysics of nutritional interventions against inherited and acquired ocular disorders and the genetics and imaging of macular telangiectasia type 2 (MacTel)—a notoriously difficult-to-diagnose hereditary disease that causes central vision loss. He is among the first researchers worldwide to test the early diagnostic capabilities of fluorescence lifetime imaging ophthalmoscopy, a new non-invasive retinal imaging technique known as FLIO.
He has received numerous awards, including the 2020 Mildred Weisenfeld Award from the Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology; the Macula Society’s 2019 W. Richard Green Lecture in honor of work that has helped explain the pathogenesis of retinal diseases; and the American Academy of Ophthalmology’s 2016 Outstanding Humanitarian Service Award.
Dr. Bernstein is also dedicated to bringing modern vitreoretinal services to the developing world in a sustainable manner. Currently, access to retinal care is extremely limited in many parts of the world, and Dr. Bernstein provides hands-on specialty training to help expand the availability and quality of care. Dr. Bernstein has worked with Moran’s Global Outreach Division and the Himalayan Cataract Project to train aspiring retina specialists from Nepal, Ghana, Ethiopia, and Bhutan.
