Brief Intro

My ophthalmology practice focuses on cornea and anterior segment surgery. This specialty deals with the outer part of the eye. I perform corneal transplants, and I treat eyelid disorders, dry eyes and more, including contact lens expertise. I'm fortunate to practice medicine at Ohio State. I've grown with our ophthalmology program. When I started, there were just two cornea specialists. Everything has grown considerably since that time. My early interest was corneal transplantation. My second love was refractive surgery. I began with extensive research in contact lenses. I've maintained an interest in research and therapeutics. Later, I developed expertise in performing refractive surgery. This surgery has advanced over 20 years and is an excellent treatment. Ohio State is proud to be an early innovator, involved in early refractive surgery research. I was proud to participate in that, much like my contact lens research. One of the joys of practicing at Ohio State is teaching residents and doing research. I believe in teamwork. I share my experience with patients and listen to their needs. I can tell them we've been there before and we're going to help. We'll do our best every time.
