Dr. Ozge Sarac is an ophthalmologist with over two decades of experience, specializing in complex corneal and anterior segment conditions. At the University of Florida, she focuses on corneal diseases, contact lens fitting for irregular corneas, cataract and refractive surgery, with a particular interest in managing keratoconus, pellucid marginal degeneration, and post-LASIK ectasia. She is dedicated to patient education and mentoring the next generation of ophthalmologists.

Dr. Sarac completed her medical degree and ophthalmology residency at Hacettepe University in Turkiye, followed by specialized training in cornea and neuro-ophthalmology.
