Founded by Dr. Smith and Dr. Patheja in 2000, we recognized the importance of expanding our services to better serve our wonderful community. This led to the establishment of a full-time satellite location in North Augusta and our spacious 15,000 square foot facility in Aiken, which houses the region's only Ophthalmic Ambulatory Surgery Center. In 2018, we were delighted to welcome Dr. Greer, one of the few Glaucoma Specialists in South Carolina, to our esteemed team. The following year, Dr. Potter, a native of North Augusta, joined us as well, prompting us to further expand our North Augusta facility to meet the growing demand for exceptional Ophthalmic care in the CSRA. When Dr. Smith retired in 2022, we gladly welcomed Dr. Read more

Ross was great today. Calm, professional, and thorough. Dr. Smith was substituting for Dr. Potter today so I saw him. Dr. Smith took time to explain several things to me. Very thorough and professional. Today was an excellent experience at Aiken Opthalmology!

The front desk staff greets you in a friendly way and efficiently obtains your insurance and identification. They let you know clearly what your payment will be, then have you seated to wait for the two Opthamology techs to see you before the doctor. Everyone is friendly and pleasant, even funny. Although the office is quite busy, they seem to process each patient as quickly as possible. My only criticism is that it was 30 minutes beyond my appointment time that I was called to begin
my appointment.

Dr. Gray and his team at Aiken Ophthalmology are absolutely amazing! I was referred and because of the situation was able to come in the same day. Not only that, the place was packed so he fit me into what was already a very busy schedule. After the foreign body was removed from my eye they got my prescription I needed sent over and everyone there was really just nice. Writing this because my quality of life for the two weeks before I went to see Dr. Gray were terrible and I am beyond grateful, the light sensitivity had gotten to the point I could barely stand moment to moment and the relief I have felt in just the first day is beyond words.

I have been going to this office for a few years now. The staff are nice and no one has ever been rude to me. My glasses have always been correct. The reason for my poor review is due to a missed diagnosis that could have been caught, or at least suspected, by the two different eye doctors I’ve seen here. I had an appointment over a year ago for eye pain when moving my eye and was diagnosed with uveitis in my left eye. Recently, I went to the North Augusta office with an urgent appointment due to a blurry spot in the center of my left eye / double vision. It was completely disregarded by the tech and doctor. I was given a regular, routine eye exam and glasses prescription. The blurry vision resolved on its own after about 7 days (before my glasses even came in). The eye doctor never mentioned that it could be autoimmune or neurological, and did not refer me to investigate further. After numbness took over my left side within a few months of that appointment, MRIs and spinal tap revealed multiple sclerosis. 15-20% of MS patients present with the same eye related symptoms that I had. Typically striking women in their 30s and 40s. I would suggest to the physicians here to take the complaint of blurry central vision/ eye pain on movement (especially occurring more than one time on the same side) as a sign of something more than just needing glasses or a steroid eye drop. Especially in a female in my age range. I think I could have been diagnosed and treated sooner if I had been told this and referred to neurology. None of the people or physicians here mean any harm I’m sure, it’s just disheartening to know it was a big sign and it was missed and not taken seriously. Eye doctors have the ability to catch this early! Before anyone else will see it or think of it.
