Biography
The focus of my ophthalmology practice is pediatric ophthalmology. With the help of our excellent othoptist, Lisa Rovick, I evaluate and treat various eye disorders in children - from infants and toddlers to teenagers. In particular, the first six years of life are the most important in children's visual development. As needed, we utilize different treatments including glasses, eye exercises, and/or surgery. Just like being the father of two young children, I have found that taking care of children's eye problems is an extremely enjoyable, sometimes challenging, and always rewarding experience.
