He also evaluates and treats glaucoma and provides surgical and non-surgical care for children and adults with eye misalignment. Dr. Bonafede earned his medical degree at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, where he received the Charles A. Oliver Memorial Prize for excellence in ophthalmology.

Dr. Carin Rojas is an ophthalmologist who provides thoughtful, technology-forward care for adults with cataract and glaucoma. She partners closely with patients to explain options in plain language and tailor treatment plans to lifestyle and visual goals. Her clinical interests span modern cataract surgery with astigmatism-correcting and other advanced lens implants, laser procedures performed in the office, and both minimally invasive and traditional glaucoma operations. Before medicine, Dr. Rojas graduated in the top 10% of her class at the United States Naval Academy and served as a commissioned officer, experiences that shaped her calm, team-oriented approach in the operating room. She earned her medical degree at Northwestern University and completed ophthalmology residency at the University of Michigan Kellogg Eye Center, followed by a dedicated glaucoma fellowship at Michigan. Whether discussing the fine points of lens selection or planning a stepwise strategy to control eye pressure, she focuses on education, shared decision-making, and durable visual outcomes.
