At Eye Care Specialists, he has built a reputation for treating every patient like family. His meticulous approach to vision correction and his passion for innovation have positioned him as one of the region’s leading eye specialists.

Excellence in Cataract Surgery

Cataracts are one of the most common causes of vision loss as people age, but modern cataract surgery can restore clarity, color, and brightness to the world. As an experienced eye specialist, Dr. Heimmel has performed thousands of cataract surgeries, each tailored to the patient’s unique visual needs and lifestyle.

Dr. Heimmel is an expert in advanced intraocular lenses (IOLs), which allow patients to achieve sharper focus and reduce their dependence on glasses. He offers the latest technology lenses, including the PanOptix PRO® Trifocal, Light Adjustable Lens (LAL), and EnVista Envy™ IOL, which represent the cutting edge of vision correction in cataract care.

What sets Dr. Heimmel apart is his personalized approach. Before every cataract surgery, he takes the time to understand each patient’s goals—whether that means crisp distance vision for driving, clear near vision for reading, or seamless transitions between both. His ability to match technology with individual needs is one of the reasons his patients describe him as not only a gifted eye doctor but a true partner in their journey to better sight.

A Pioneer in LASIK and Vision Correction

For patients seeking freedom from glasses and contact lenses, LASIK and other refractive procedures can be life-changing. Dr. Heimmel has been at the forefront of LASIK and vision correction for years, helping countless patients achieve 20/20 vision or better.

As a board-certified ophthalmologist and respected eye specialist, Dr. Heimmel uses state-of-the-art laser technology and diagnostic imaging to ensure precision and safety in every LASIK procedure. Each patient’s corneal anatomy is carefully mapped using advanced topography and wavefront analysis to customize the treatment plan. The result is sharper, clearer vision and faster recovery times.

Whether performing LASIK, PRK, or evaluating patients for cataract surgery with lens-based vision correction, Dr. Heimmel approaches every case with the same level of detail, precision, and empathy that earned him the Top Doctor 2025 honor.
