Dr. Heidy Martinez

Dr. Heidy C. Martinez is a pediatric ophthalmologist who cares for children and adults with strabismus as well as a wide range of pediatric eye conditions. Her philosophy is simple: meet families where they are, explain clearly, and tailor treatment to each child’s needs. She treats amblyopia, nystagmus, pediatric glaucoma and cataract, uveitis, retinopathy of prematurity, and congenital eyelid and tear-duct disorders. Dr. Martinez believes early diagnosis and timely intervention can change a child’s visual development and long-term quality of life.

Her background includes residency training and dual fellowships in pediatric ophthalmology, with additional work in research on visual pathways and development. She collaborates closely with multidisciplinary teams to coordinate medical and surgical care, from patching and glasses to strabismus surgery and complex inflammatory disease management. Families describe her as respectful, attentive, and compassionate—an advocate who listens carefully and partners with them to find the right path forward.
