About Me

Dr. Amol Sura is an ophthalmologist who focuses on inflammatory, autoimmune, and infectious diseases of the eye. He cares for patients with inflammation inside the eye (uveitis) and on the ocular surface, and is experienced with modern immunomodulating treatments, including systemic immunosuppressive medications, biologic agents, targeted injectable therapies, and in-office technologies for uveitis and ocular surface disease. In addition to medical care, he performs routine and complex cataract surgery tailored to a patient’s needs and overall health.

His approach is highly collaborative and individualized. Dr. Sura carefully reviews each patient’s medical history and coordinates care with related specialists—such as rheumatology, infectious diseases, pediatrics, and internal medicine—when systemic conditions affect eye health. Clinical interests include uveitis across the age spectrum, iridocyclitis, scleritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis–associated eye disease, ocular cicatricial pemphigoid, ocular rosacea, bacterial and viral eye infections, and severe dry eye. Patients appreciate his clear explanations and thorough, team-based care philosophy.
