About Me
As an ophthalmologist, I want to make sure my patients fully understand their conditions so they can take an active role in their health care. After the initial visit, we start a comprehensive treatment plan that might involve medical and traditional surgical therapy in addition to newer laser technologies and minimally invasive surgical techniques, depending on the patient's unique situation. I specialize in treating glaucoma (open angle, angle closure, secondary), cataracts, diabetic retinopathy and dry eye.
At Ohio State, I enjoy the opportunity to be on the cutting edge of therapies, a broad and diverse patient population, and the chance to train future ophthalmologists.
In my spare time, I enjoy watching films with my wife, spending time outdoors and cheering at sporting events with my children.

Overall with regards to my first visit with Dr. Evans, he seemed very professional, nice, and understanding when it came to such questions I had that rendered mostly on constant dry eye problems, using preservation - free eye drops, and concerns with 'slight cataracts' found in my eyes (due mostly being Type 1 insulin - dependent diabetic) that haven't shown to have expanded in my eyes - - - -
Nothing bad at all OSU care facilities are great.
Dr. Evans explained the procedure, and explained how much better my vision would be after. He explained I would see him each week and use both drops Rx until he told me to stop antibiotic, and reduce off Prednisone drop. My eye is fine and had no problems.
