Our team
Meet the patient-support team and optometrists at Park Slope Eye in Brooklyn.
Founder, owner & optometrist
Dr. Justin Bazan founded Park Slope Eye in 2008, remains the owner, and continues to practice as an optometrist.
Dr. Bazan grew up in Utica, New York, attended Trinity University, and later trained at SUNY College of Optometry. Outside eye care, he loves global adventures. One of the biggest: thru-hiking the entire Appalachian Trail from end to end.
Optometrist
Dr. Derek Lin joined Park Slope Eye in 2022 and is a practicing optometrist. He grew up in Huntington, Long Island, studied at NYU, and went on to SUNY College of Optometry. His clinical interests include contact lenses, myopia management, and general optometry.
When he is not seeing patients, Dr. Lin enjoys hiking and competes in recurve archery. Dr. Lin speaks basic Spanish and basic Mandarin and can conduct eye exams in both languages.
Office Manager
Blake grew up in Houston, Texas, and attended Harding University. At Park Slope Eye, he helps keep the in-office experience running smoothly and makes sure patients feel taken care of from the moment they walk in.
Outside the office, Blake is usually following sports or unwinding with video games.
Remote Patient Support
Aaron grew up in Dallas and studied at Southern Methodist University and the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising. Longtime patients may remember Aaron from his years in the office. He now supports patients remotely and helps keep things moving behind the scenes.
Outside work, Aaron is all about design and creativity (especially candles and home-goods design) and hanging out with his two pups. He is also a classically trained saxophonist and, in a former life, performed with fire and even ate fire. His unexpected kryptonite: kites.
