Clear Vision: Advanced Cataract Care with Robert Blasberg, MD

Cataracts can cloud not only your vision but also your quality of life. Fortunately, advancements in cataract treatment have paved the way for clearer vision and a brighter future. Helping lead the field is one of TEG’s doctors, Robert D. Blasberg, MD, a comprehensive ophthalmologist and refractive cataract specialist. Dr. Blasberg, a highly experienced surgeon, has been serving the Sandy Springs community’s eye care needs since 1984.

Dr. Blasberg, originally from Miami, earned an economics degree while studying science at the University of Pennsylvania. He then pursued a medical degree and ophthalmology residency at Emory University, where he later became a Clinical Assistant Professor. With decades of experience and a commitment to patient care, Dr. Blasberg is a respected specialist in cataract and glaucoma management. His dedication to ophthalmology is profoundly personal, revealing that his interest in eye care began because his grandfather was blind, allowing him to understand the emotional and familial impact of blindness. “I wanted to enter a field where my work could make a meaningful difference,” says Dr. Blasberg.

Cataracts and glaucoma frequently occur together, and Dr. Blasberg is expertly prepared to treat both. He provides the advanced iStent® Trabecular Micro-Bypass Stent, a state-of-the-art solution that lowers eye pressure in patients with both conditions. This minimally invasive procedure can greatly enhance the quality of life for those affected.

Dr. Blasberg’s affiliations with prestigious organizations such as the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery show his devotion to this field of healthcare. His devotion to staying at the spearhead of ophthalmological advancements ensures that his patients receive the best care possible. “I have many years of experience and think that’s really a great tool to have because there’s really no greater teacher than experience and I can offer that,” states Dr. Blasberg.

His well-rounded life outside the clinic contributes to the compassionate and understanding care he provides for his patients.
