In a complex healthcare environment, people want a single point of contact for their
family’s eye care needs. Horizon Eye Care provides a full range of vision services in multiple
Charlotte-area locations.
Established in 1997, the practice includes 16 ophthalmologists and four optometrists,
assisted by a sta known for compassion, respect, and integrity. Horizon has been named
Top 25 in the U.S. for surgical excellence, and the practice continues to add the best and
brightest in the eye care industry.
Lewis R. Gaskin, MD, president of the practice, says: “Even as our practice grows and
technology advances, providing the highest quality, specialized patient care will always
remain our primary focus.”
Services at Horizon range from routine family and pediatric eye care to specialty services
and surgeries for cornea, glaucoma, oculoplastics, and retina conditions, along with cataract
surgery and laser-assisted cataract surgery.
For the past 20 years, Horizon’s specialists have been performing LASIK surgery. Recently,
the practice invested half a million dollars in the most advanced and e ective laser in the
market, allowing surgeons to give patients the best possible, personalized visual outcome in
an e ort to remove the need for glasses and contacts.
Another innovative refractive surgery that Horizon o ers is CLE (Clear Lens
Exchange) or RLE (Refractive Lens Exchange); candidates typically have high amounts of
nearsightedness or farsightedness beyond the accepted treatment range for LASIK and have
not yet developed cataracts.
Horizon is also the region’s leader in the use of Symfony, the revolutionary lens for cataract
patients. As part of its complete optical department, Horizon’s sta provides expert advice
to help patients choose the perfect eyewear for their vision, style, and day-to-day activities.
