About Me

Dr. Nancy Faux is a medical and surgical retina specialist who treats conditions affecting the macula, retina, and vitreous. She cares for patients with age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, retinal tears and detachments, macular holes and puckers, and retinal vein occlusions. Her goal is to pair advanced diagnostics with evidence-based treatments—such as anti-VEGF injections, laser therapy, or microsurgery—while keeping patients informed and comfortable at every step. Originally from New Orleans, Dr. Faux completed residency in ophthalmology and an intensive two-year retina fellowship. She has been recognized for her commitment to teaching and teamwork and is grateful for the opportunity to help people protect and restore their vision. Outside clinic and the operating room, she enjoys time with family and staying active.
