Dr. C E. Ellis
Overview
I am committed to helping patients improve their quality of life by optimizing their vision. I primarily treat patients with cataracts, corneal problems, and patients seeking independence from their contacts or glasses. I perform all types of cataract surgery including premium, laser-assisted, and complex cataract surgery. I perform partial and full-thickness corneal transplants in addition to refractive surgery procedures including LASIK and PRK. In my spare time, I am an avid college basketball fan, and I enjoy traveling with my wife and son.
