About Me

Dr. Guyton is a professor of ophthalmology who specializes in the surgical treatment of strabismus in both children and adults. He has extensive experience with complex eye muscle surgeries, including cyclovertical procedures and the use of adjustable sutures. His practice focuses heavily on adult strabismus, re-operations, and conditions such as amblyopia and diplopia. He also has expertise in ophthalmic optics, clinical refraction, and potential acuity testing.

In addition to his surgical work, Dr. Guyton provides vision screening for infants and children and manages a range of ocular motility disorders and refractive errors. He treats patients from childhood through older adulthood, offering thorough evaluations and personalized care. His approach combines decades of clinical experience with ongoing innovation in vision screening technology.
