Overview
I specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of patients with cataracts and glaucoma. My goal is to treat each patient as if they were a family member. Using the latest imaging techniques and scientific evidence, I help my patients make the best medical decisions. I was born and raised in Seattle, WA, and have spent many years of my medical training at Duke Health. When not at work, I enjoy traveling, playing tennis, watching Duke basketball and spending time with my wife. I feel privileged to be a physician and educator at the Duke Eye Center, and I look forward to meeting you.

Additional Areas of Focus
Dr. Gupta has provided the following conditions as areas of focus. Please note that we may not have enough data to validate their experience in some of these conditions.
Clinical Research
Clinical research consists of overseeing clinical studies of patients undergoing new treatments and therapies, and publishing articles in peer reviewed medical journals. 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.
University Of North Carolina At Chapel Hill
Donald Budenz is an Ophthalmologist in Hillsborough, North Carolina. Dr. Budenz is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Ocular Hypertension (OHT). His top areas of expertise are Ocular Hypertension (OHT), Glaucoma, Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome, Trabeculectomy, and Vitrectomy. Dr. Budenz is currently accepting new patients.
Duke Eye Center
I feel very privileged to take care of patients at the Duke Eye Center. I believe that everyone deserves state-of-the art and compassionate eye care and strive to provide both to my patients. I particularly enjoy working with my patients to develop the plan of care that is tailored to their needs. Many of my patients have glaucoma or are at risk for glaucoma, although I also take care of people with general eye conditions such as cataract. My research focuses on helping patients with glaucoma self-manage their disease by improving patient educational materials, studying communication between patients and doctors, and developing a novel eyedrop bottle that helps patients instill their eyedrops correctly. My North Carolina roots run deep- originally from Charlotte, I am fortunate to have been educated both at UNC and Duke, my husband works at Duke and my three daughters were born in Duke Hospital. Dr. Muir is rated as a Distinguished provider by MediFind in the treatment of Ocular Hypertension (OHT). Her top areas of expertise are Glaucoma, Ocular Hypertension (OHT), Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome, Trabeculectomy, and Corneal Transplant.
Duke Eye Center
I was born and raised right here in Durham, NC. After attending college at Duke, I ventured north to Boston, where I completed most of my medical training, and was fortunate to meet and marry the love of my life, my husband Neil (also on faculty as a cardiologist here at Duke). I returned to Durham for my Glaucoma fellowship, briefly joined the faculty “across the street” at UNC-Chapel Hill, and then returned “home” to Duke Eye Center in 1995, where I have been on the faculty ever since. Dual fellowship-trained in both Pediatric Ophthalmology and Strabismus as well as in Glaucoma, I have a clinical and research focus on pediatric glaucoma and cataracts, as well as retinopathy of prematurity, but enjoy providing care for myriad pediatric problems of the eyes, including treatment of “grown children” with ocular alignment issues. My modus operandi is very simple – I simply try hard to treat each and every patient the way I would like someone to treat me. It works every time, and I am privileged to be a clinician and educator at Duke Eye Center and in Duke University Health System. Dr. Freedman is rated as an Elite provider by MediFind in the treatment of Ocular Hypertension (OHT). Her top areas of expertise are Retinopathy of Prematurity, Strabismus, Brown Syndrome, Trabeculectomy, and Cataract Removal.
