The American Glaucoma Society




A graduate of the Loyola Stritch School of Medicine in Illinois, David Kim, MD, completed his residency in ophthalmology at the Medical College of Wisconsin. Dr. David Kim has treated patients at Arizona Eye Consultants in Tucson, AZ, and previously served as a clinical associate professor at the Medical College of Wisconsin from 1996 to 2017. Dr. Kim is a member of the American Glaucoma Society (AGS).

The AGS exists to support glaucoma specialists and facilitate the exchange of knowledge between them to benefit medical students entering the field, physicians, and patients. Membership with the AGS is open to physicians who operate a clinical practice and have completed three years of residency training in ophthalmology and a year-long clinical fellowship in glaucoma.

Members of the AGS gain access to several benefits including a subscription to the journal published by the AGS, reduced registration fees for the AGS annual meeting, and access to a members-only open forum, which serves as a valuable resource for members to exchange ideas and share difficult cases. Membership with the AGS also provides an opportunity for members to serve on various committees focused on furthering industry research, patient care, communication, and education.
