I am a native North Carolinian, having grown up in Raleigh, NC. I went to UNC-Chapel Hill for my undergraduate degree in Biology and attended Medical School there as well. I remained at UNC to complete my residency in Ophthalmology. I then came to the school with a deeper shade of blue to complete my fellowship year in Glaucoma and joined the faculty at the Duke Eye Center in July of 1996. I knew I wanted to be an eye doctor in 9th grade when I received my first pair of glasses. I could see clearly now, and I decided to dedicate my life to helping others improve and/or maintain their vision. My approach with patients is to put them at ease, as often they are concerned about going blind. I give them an opportunity to share with me their concerns, then I make recommendations based on the best available literature and my personal experience. Dr. Herndon is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome.

I specialize in the medical and surgical management of cataracts and glaucoma. I believe in partnering with my patients to create an optimal, evidence-based treatment plan for each individual. Because glaucoma requires lifelong care, I feel privileged to be a part of the lives of my patients and particularly enjoy getting to know patients and their families as we work together to treat their eye conditions. I have a number of research interests that focus on developing new technologies to diagnose glaucoma as well as developing new ways to measure eye pressure. When not working, I enjoy traveling and spending time with my family, gardening, and cooking. Dr. Wen is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome.

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. Dr. Gupta is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome. His top areas of expertise are Glaucoma, Ocular Hypertension (OHT), Cataract, Trabeculectomy, and Vitrectomy.

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 Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome. Her top areas of expertise are Retinopathy of Prematurity, Strabismus, Brown Syndrome, Trabeculectomy, and Cataract Removal.

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 an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome. Her top areas of expertise are Glaucoma, Ocular Hypertension (OHT), Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome, Trabeculectomy, and Corneal Transplant.

Vision is so intricately related to one's quality of life. Many patients who come to the Duke Eye Center are concerned that they could be going blind, but they rarely ask that question directly. It is important that my patients clearly understand their eye disease process, the risks, benefits and all treatment options so that we can make joint decisions. I try to reassure, when possible, and share the positives, such as 'their eye condition may only affect one eye' or that 'it is possible to improve their vision or prevent further visual loss'. We also discuss how other health problems or lifestyle decisions can affect their visual health. When someone has a vision threatening condition, it is my goal to ensure that they know that, as their physician, I will advise them and guide them through their treatment and the often complicated medical system. I enjoy what I do every day as part of the Duke Health family!. Dr. Fekrat is rated as an Advanced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Pigment-Dispersion Syndrome. Her top areas of expertise are Retinal Vein Occlusion, Endophthalmitis, Age-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD), Vitrectomy, and Cataract Removal.

I treat patients with glaucoma and cataract with evidence based medical treatments, lasers and surgery. Using the latest imaging techniques, I am able to detect glaucoma and its progression at the earliest stages. My research interests include technologies that may help to prevent the onset and progression of glaucoma. I am involved in clinical trials for emerging treatments for glaucoma. When not working I enjoy traveling with my family, and spending time with our dog. I also enjoy listening to Indian classical music.
