Over 20 Years of Quality Care
1991
Dr. Robinson started Delaware Eye Center over 20 years ago. When Dr. Robinson moved to Delaware he saw a pressing need for a facility in Delaware that could provide state of the art care across all sub-specialties in ophthalmology. “When I first arrived in Delaware, patients often had to travel great distances to urban university hospital settings to obtain surgical care for complex cases. This was a great hardship for many patients.”
2003
In 2003, the Delaware Eye Surgery Center was opened in a new wing of the building. The facility is staffed with experienced nurses dedicated exclusively to eye surgery, and the facility provides state of the art surgical care at a much reduced cost for patients and the community. Along with cataract surgery, glaucoma and plastic surgery, the Surgery Center became the first outpatient facility in Delaware to provide outpatient vitreoretinal surgery for complex retinal disorders.
