About Me

Dr. Casey Mathys is a board-certified ophthalmologist and fellowship-trained cornea specialist who provides comprehensive eye care with expertise in corneal conditions, external diseases, and refractive eye surgery. He performs traditional and laser-assisted cataract surgery, helping patients address vision impairment from cataracts using advanced techniques like Femto Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery and refractive lens exchange.

Dr. Mathys completed his ophthalmology residency at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he served as chief resident, followed by a fellowship in cornea, external disease, and refractive surgery. He has contributed to the field through publications in medical journals, book chapters on cornea disease, and lectures at national meetings.
