Advancing vision. Built for the long term.
Our mission is to bring world-class surgery to every patient and give every eye, straightforward or complex, the same expertise, honesty, and care. We will stay at the cutting edge, and even steer the blade, as we innovate to advance cataract, cornea, glaucoma, and other complex and reconstructive surgery.
Legacy Eye Clinic is locally owned and independent. Dr. Tenkman is a fellowship-trained, multi-award-winning DMEK surgeon, specializing in the most advanced form of corneal transplant. We partner with your own eye doctor, who continues your routine care before and after surgery.
