Dr. Shoubhik Chakraborty | Biomedical Sciences | Best Researcher Award

Pediatric Optometrist | Kalinga Institute of Medical Sciences | India

Mr. Shoubhik Chakraborty is a dedicated Clinical Optometrist specializing in Pediatric Optometry, Cerebral Visual Impairment (CVI), Binocular Vision, Neuro-Optometry, and Behavioral Optometry. He completed his Bachelor’s degree in Clinical Optometry and Vision Science (2017–2021) from NSHM College of Management and Technology, MAKAUT University, Durgapur, followed by a Fellowship in Pediatric Optometry, Binocular Vision, and Cerebral Visual Impairment (2021–2023) at Narayana Nethralaya, Bangalore. His academic foundation was built at Karaiya High School and Sagardighi Thermal Power School, affiliated with WBBSE and WBCHSE respectively. Professionally, Mr. Chakraborty began his clinical training at MGM Eye Institute, Raipur, where he gained hands-on experience in hospital-based vision care. He later worked as a Cerebral Visual Impairment Specialist at AIIMS, Jodhpur, demonstrating excellence in managing pediatric and neuro-optometric cases, and is currently serving as a Pediatric Optometrist at KIMS Hospital, Bhubaneswar, where he continues to advance patient outcomes through customized vision therapy and diagnostic precision. His research interests encompass neuro-visual rehabilitation, visual neuroplasticity, binocular dysfunctions, amblyopia management, and pediatric refractive errors. He has developed strong research skills in clinical data interpretation, vision assessment methodologies, and evidence-based optometric intervention design. Mr. Chakraborty has contributed scholarly papers, including publications in Optometry and Visual Performance, and presented his findings at prestigious forums such as the Asia Pacific Optometry Summit (2018), Bengal Optometry Conference (2020), and Karnataka Optometry Conference (2022). Recognized for his leadership, teamwork, and clinical innovation, he exemplifies a balance of academic rigor and compassionate care. His achievements reflect a commitment to advancing pediatric visual science through both clinical excellence and research innovation. With his growing expertise, professional dedication, and vision for future advancements, Mr. Shoubhik Chakraborty is poised to emerge as a leading figure in neuro-visual and pediatric optometry research and practice in India and beyond.
