Overview

I feel fortunate to be able to spend my days helping preserve and restore eye health. I have always appreciated the ability of those in our profession to use the latest technological innovations to make rapid improvements in quality of life for our patients. I joined NCEENT in 2009 after 3 1/2 years in the Charlotte area. I have extensive experience with performing cataract surgery, the medical and surgical management of glaucoma (particularly minimally invasive glaucoma surgery), and laser vision correction surgery, along with diabetic eye exams and the treatment of dry eye and ocular surface disease. Outside of my practice, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two boys, improving my photography skills, and homebrewing beer.

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 Neuroretinitis. His top areas of expertise are Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD), Late-Onset Retinal Degeneration, Geographic Atrophy, Vitrectomy, and Trabeculectomy.
