Therapeutic Optometrist, Optometric Glaucoma Specialist Dr. Somji was born and raised in Southern Africa, where he spent many years and attended the University of Cape Town before moving to Houston for further education. He earned his Doctor of Optometry degree from the University of Houston College of Optometry. Dr. Somji's practice philosophy is to consider the entire visual system from structure to function. He spends a lot of time with patients and doesn't consider an evaluation to be a quick exam for a prescription only. He truly believes that over the years eyes and vision have become very underappreciated as vision care has become commoditized. Dr. Somji believes vision is not just 'seeing well' and as such has a special interest in functional binocular vision and performance sports vision. Dr. Somji is well respected in this field and is trusted by the Sugar Land Skeeters and the Houston Dynamo FC where he serves as a consultant to improve visual performance of professional athletes. He also gets referrals from sports medicine physicians to co-manage patients with concussions. Dr. Somji is a board member of the International Sports Vision Association and a member of the Neuro Optometric Rehab Association. Dr. Somji's other clinical interests include myopia management (orthokeratology, soft lens myopia management and atropine therapy to help slow down children's nearsightedness), speciality custom contact lenses (sclerals, hybrid, gas permeable), dry eyes and eye disease management. Dr. Somji is trusted by many eye surgeons in the Houston metro area who refer patients for post operative care (LASIK and cataract) and specialty contact lens fitting for patients with keratoconus. He also lectures continuing education to other Optometrists on orthokeratology, hybrid custom contact lenses and performance vision, and to Texas Athletic Trainers on visual performance. Along with Dr. Sana Somji, Dr. Somji launched Texas' first Dry Eye Spa where he treats patients with dry eye disease with the newest technology in eye care. Dr. Somji is a Therapeutic Optometrist and an Optometric Glaucoma Specialist and is licensed by the Texas Optometry Board. He is an Adjunct Clinical Instructor with the University of Houston College of Optometry. He is a proud member of the American Optometric Association, the Texas Optometric Association, the International Sports Vision Association, the Neuro Optometric Rehab Association, and the American Academy of Orthokeratology and Myopia Control.. Dr. Somji also serves as a Regional Leader for the Professional Eye Care Associates of America. During his training at UH College of Optometry, Dr. Somji was awarded several awards for outstanding leadership ability and is a lifetime member of the prestigious Gold Key International Optometric Honor Society. Dr. Somji has worked at the Texas Eye Research and Technology Center as a clinical contact lens investigator. He has guest lectured at the Student Optometric Practice Management Association and has served in an ambassadorial role to optometry school students in Texas on behalf of The Vision Council; a non-profit organization. Outside of the office, along with his wife Dr. Sana Somji who is also an Optometrist, Dr. Somji enjoys spending time with his family, traveling, outdoor adventure activities and playing soccer!
