Lora Rabin Dagi Glass, MD

Serving the Upper West Side for decades, ophthalmology in Upper Manhattan once clustered near hospitals—until Lora Rabin Dagi Glass, MD opened within the Vanderbilt Clinic Building. Situated three floors up on a busy medical campus, the practice draws patients who need procedure-level care blended with office-based eye exams. Cataract evaluation and management emerge as a cornerstone, supported by early-stage glaucoma testing; retinal imaging and optical coherence tomography round out diagnostics. Glaucoma follow-up visits and postoperative cataract checks fit into straightforward return appointments, scheduled as needed. From the corner of Haven Avenue, a short walk past the medical center’s central lobby leads to the third-floor corridor marked simply 622 W 168th St, Third Floor. Patients adjust their schedules to the clinic’s rhythm rather than the other way around. Dry eye consultations and contact-lens evaluations are handled in the same suite, avoiding extra trips across Washington Heights. If prescription updates or urgent floaters require attention, you can call straight through to this outpost of eye care at (212) 305-9535. The phone number replaces a lobby desk and long intake forms, connecting directly to the scheduler. Directions map straight in: enter Vanderbilt Clinic Building, take the elevators to level 3, follow the signs. In a neighborhood packed with specialists, this office offers clarity without the scatter.
