About Me

Dr. Scott A. Cherne is a board-certified ophthalmologist with extensive experience in cataract and LASIK surgery, having performed over 20,000 of each procedure. He focuses on individualized treatment plans, utilizing advanced small-incision and no-patch cataract surgery techniques. Dr. Cherne also offers specialty replacement lens implants to address astigmatism and provide both near and far vision, tailoring each surgery to optimize visual outcomes.

In addition to refractive and cataract surgery, Dr. Cherne specializes in corneal transplantation, including DSAEK (Descemet's Stripping Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty). He pioneered a unique DSAEK technique that results in virtually 100% graft adherence, and has presented his work at the American Academy of Ophthalmology annual meetings and international eye surgery conferences. Dr. Cherne also manages glaucoma, diabetic eye disease, and dry eye syndrome.
