Overview
I provide medical oversight for comprehensive patients and established cornea patients. Preserving and restoring vision is my passion, and it is a commitment I make to all of my patients. Duke uses the most current technologies and innovations to deliver the latest in care. It gives patients great confidence to know they are being treated by leaders in their field who use a team approach. I came back to Duke in 1996 after earning my medical degree here in 1981. In my spare time, I enjoy playing guitar, reading and traveling.

Clinical Research

Providers who actively participate in clinical research are generally at the forefront of the fields and aware of the most up-to-date advances in treatments for their patients.
Davis Ambulatory Surgical Center
I am a clinician dedicated to helping children and adults preserve and restore their vision. I perform a wide variety of procedures including cataract surgery, cornea transplants and Lasik surgery. I also see a large number of patients with ocular surface disease, ranging from dry eye to limbal stem cell disease. At Duke, we are able to offer new technologies and unique surgeries for these conditions. I truly love what I do and the relationships I build with my patients. When I am not busy at work, I am home spending time with my two children or trying to sneak in a long run. Dr. Daluvoy is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Cloudy Cornea.

I am dedicated to helping people of all ages preserve, restore, and maximize their vision. I perform all types of refractive surgery (LASIK, PRK, ICL, and refractive lens exchange) so that I can offer my patients a treatment customized to their needs. I also specialize in cataract surgery, including premium lenses, corneal transplants, and other procedures of the eye surface. In addition to my work at Duke Health, I am heavily involved in humanitarian eye care in Africa and around the world. I am the founder of HelpMercy International, a founder of the Moran CORE education website, and was one of the surgeons featured in the award-winning movie Duk County. I live in Chapel Hill with my wife and three children who helped me write and produce a full-length musical called “RISE.” We also enjoy cycling, rock climbing, and building and playing guitars, basses, and drums.
