Overview

I have a special focus on glaucoma-related to inflammation (uveitic glaucoma), and I work closely with the uveitis specialists at the Center for Ocular Immunology at the Duke Eye Center. My goal is to provide the best possible patient care with an understanding of my patients’ needs and concerns. I grew up in North Carolina and feel privileged to care for patients in North Carolina and the surrounding areas. Outside of work, I enjoy the beach, watching sports, and spending time with family and friends.

I’m a retina specialist who takes care of patients who have problems with the back of the eye. When a patient comes to see me, I like getting to know them and their history, so that I can tailor their treatment. My patients come from a variety of different backgrounds, so I find that I often learn as much from them as they do from me. Everybody has a different story and I very much like to learn about the patients to whom I provide care. Duke is a great place at which to work and from which to seek treatment because it’s a very collaborative institution. Everyone works together to do what’s best for the patient. Outside of work, I like to spend as much time as possible with my family. I also enjoy cooking, playing sports and watching sports. Dr. Jaffe is rated as an Elite provider by MediFind in the treatment of Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD). His top areas of expertise are Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD), Late-Onset Retinal Degeneration, Geographic Atrophy, Vitrectomy, and Trabeculectomy.
