Dr. John Allen

Dr. John C. Allen is a glaucoma and cataract surgeon who helps patients see—and feel—better with thoughtful, stepwise care. He offers the full spectrum of glaucoma treatments, from medications and laser procedures to advanced surgical options, and he partners with patients to match treatment intensity with their goals and daily routines. For cataract surgery, he explains lens choices and recovery in plain language so people know what to expect before and after their procedure.

Dr. Allen completed ophthalmology residency and a glaucoma fellowship at Emory University following medical school at Wake Forest University School of Medicine and undergraduate studies in chemistry at the University of Virginia. He is experienced with modern cataract techniques and a wide range of glaucoma procedures, and he coordinates closely with referring optometrists and primary care clinicians to support long-term, stable vision.
