Garth Stevens, Jr., M.D.

Education

Dr. Stevens received his doctor of medicine from the University of Virginia, and then completed two fellowships – one in cornea and external disease at Georgetown University, and the other in ocular immunology, at the National Eye Institute.

Experience

For over 20 years, Dr. Stevens has been performing corneal transplantations.  In 2001, Dr. Stevens began performing a new type of corneal transplantation – replacing just the back layer of the cornea.  Currently, he is performing several newer modifications and better techniques such as DSAEK, DLEK, and DALK.  These new techniques have markedly improved the effectiveness and safety of corneal transplantation for patients with a wide variety of corneal problems.  As a refractive surgery patient himself, Dr. Stevens has firsthand experiences of the benefits of LASIK, PRK, ICLs, and other refractive procedures. 

Practice

Dr. Stevens has certified over a thousand eye surgeons from around the country, as well as in Canada to perform laser vision correction.  Dr. Stevens regularly lectures at VCU School of Medicine.

Personal Profile

Dr. Stevens resides in Richmond, Virginia with his wife, Mary and their five children.
