Your Board Certified Ophthalmologist
Ignatius S. Hneleski III, M.D.

An Unwavering Commitment to Excellence
“When vision or eye problems occur, they can affect every area of your life. I have worked diligently to attain the skills, experience and technology to deliver the finest ophthalmological care to my patients. What’s more, I am dedicated to staying abreast of evolving research and embracing new protocols and standards of care.”

Communication and Compassion
“I treat each patient with the empathy, respect and professionalism they deserve. I’ll take the time to listen carefully to your concerns, answer your questions and educate you as we move through the diagnostic and treatment processes. By explaining my findings and your options in a straight-forward manner, I’ll make sure you and your family understand your condition and what to expect during and after care.”

Training the Next Generation of Caregivers
“In addition to delivering care, I’m fortunate to be able to share my knowledge and skills with students at the prestigious Wills Eye Hospital. The time I spend teaching and lecturing lets me train new physicians and improves my clinical skills by keeping me on the leading edge of ophthalmology.”

“After spending my entire life extremely nearsighted and totally dependent on glasses or contact lenses, my vision worsened with cataracts. I researched the type of lens implants available, and am very happy I opted for the Crystalens. The decision was well worth the cost, as my life is now enriched with 20/20 vision both near and distant! Without corrective glasses, I smile all the time, enjoying this miracle.

Thank you Dr. Hneleski!”

“I have been dependent on eyeglasses since early childhood. The decision to have the Restore Lens implanted was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Dr. Hneleski, III, was great! After giving me the disappointing news that I wasn’t a candidate for the LASIK procedure he explained all of my options and discussed which would be best for me. He was very patient and answered all of my questions. His staff and surgical team were also wonderful.

I can now read the TV Guide screen from across the room, see the alarm clock next to my bed and clasp my jewelry without my glasses. I am also able to purchase a normal pair of sunglasses - what a treat! It is amazing how quickly my quality of life has changed. I wish I would have done this sooner.”
