UT Southwestern Medical Center earned High Performing recognition for ophthalmology by U.S. News & World Report for 2018–19, placing us among the country’s leading hospitals for eye disease treatment and care.
The North Dallas Ophthalmology Clinic is a satellite office for our on-campus Ophthalmology Clinic. Our ophthalmic subspecialists, who are dedicated to preserving healthy eyesight and preventing blindness, rotate between the Ophthalmology Clinic in the James W. Aston Ambulatory Care Center, the Fort Worth Ophthalmology Clinic and Laser Center, and the North Dallas Ophthalmology Clinic.
"I love the active, problem-solving aspects of ophthalmology. I can see what’s causing my patients’ vision problems and put together a customized treatment plan for the patient."
The following information will help you prepare for your appointment and expedite your experience.
Please bring your current insurance card, a method of payment (we accept checks or debit/credit cards only), and a complete list of your current medications and dosages (including over-the-counter medications, herbs, and vitamins).
To make the most of your time with the doctor, make a list of questions ahead of time and bring them to your appointment.
If you’re new to the clinic, you can expect your doctor and technician to perform a thorough history and visual exam lasting one to two hours. Your physician may request you undergo additional tests in the clinic, such as a visual field exam, which takes 20 to 30 minutes to perform.
If you need to cancel your appointment, please notify the clinic at least 24 hours in advance so that we can accommodate other patients waiting to schedule an appointment.
To accurately follow your entire visual pathway, your doctor may dilate your eyes. Your pupils will take between 20 to 30 minutes to dilate, during which time you may sit in the waiting or exam room. If you anticipate your exam will include dilation, you may want to arrange for someone to drive you to and from your appointment.
It is very important that you do not run out of your medication. Be sure that you have sufficient refills to last until your next appointment with your ophthalmologist. We are happy to provide you with a written prescription upon request.
If you run out of refills, please call your pharmacy and your pharmacist will fax a refill request to us. Please allow us 24 to 48 hours to process refill requests.
