About Me
Grant Carlisle, MD, is a comprehensive ophthalmologist with advanced training in ophthalmic plastic and reconstructive surgery. He provides medical and surgical eye care—ranging from cataract surgery to treatment of eyelid, eyebrow, and tear duct problems—and helps patients choose options that restore both vision and comfort. Dr. Carlisle enjoys seeing the difference precise eyelid and lacrimal procedures can make for tearing, irritation, and visual field obstruction, and offers solutions that balance function and appearance.
Born and raised in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, Dr. Carlisle completed internship at Hennepin Healthcare, ophthalmology residency at Penn State Health (where he served as chief resident), and a fellowship in ophthalmic plastic and reconstructive surgery at Penn State Health. He brings that experience home to care for patients in the Iron Range and beyond, with a straightforward, patient-first style.
