Dr. Jean Shein, MD

Dr. Jean Shein is a board-certified ophthalmologist who joined the Eye Care Center of Kauai, in Lihue, Hawaii, in 2009. She specializes in the medical and surgical management of cataracts, diabetes, glaucoma, ocular tumors, and macular degeneration. She also offers premium services, including eyelid surgery, multifocal lens implants, and astigmatic lens implants.

Dr. Shein perfectly matches the family focus of the Eye Care Center of Kauai, as she’s fellowship trained in pediatric eye diseases. She also offers cosmetic services for adults who want to maintain their appearance, such as SkinMedica facial peels, Botox treatments, and Latisse for lengthening eyelashes.

After graduating cum laude from Dartmouth College, Dr. Shein received her medical degree from New York University. Her love for Hawaii was realized during her internship year at the University of Hawaii. She finished her training in ophthalmology at New York University and at the Manhattan Eye, Ear, and Throat Hospital, where she served as chief resident in her senior year. Then she refined her skill during her fellowship at the University of California, San Diego.

Dr. Shein has the respect of her patients and the community, as shown by the fact that she won Best Doctors in Hawaii for 3 consecutive years. When she’s not caring for the eye health of her patients, Dr. Shein enjoys spending as much time as possible with her husband and children.
