Saving sight globally, and beyond

We not only address pediatric ophthalmic conditions with care and compassion, but also work with adults with strabismus. We understand, research and treat genetic diseases that affect your child’s vision from the time they are born, throughout their young lives and well into adulthood.

ORTHOPTISTS MAKE IT HAPPEN

These specialized care providers take critical eye measurements, determine eye movements and provide the utmost in care to our littlest patients. Learn more about them by clicking below.
