About Me
Dr. Alexander Barsam is a comprehensive ophthalmologist who focuses on cataract surgery and vision optimization. He partners with each patient to tailor a plan that fits their goals—whether that means reducing dependence on glasses with advanced intraocular lenses or simplifying day-to-day vision with a straightforward surgical approach. He also provides longitudinal care for common eye conditions and coordinates with subspecialists when needed so treatment remains convenient and cohesive.
Dr. Barsam completed medical school at the University of Miami and ophthalmology residency at SSM Health Saint Louis University Hospital. His interests include minimally invasive glaucoma surgery performed at the time of cataract removal and the use of premium lens technology to correct astigmatism and presbyopia. Patients describe his manner as clear, unhurried, and reassuring, with a strong emphasis on safety and comfort before, during, and after surgery.
