Dr. Thomas Neiman
Optometrist
Dr. Thomas Neiman, who was born in Dallas and raised in Rowlett, is pleased to return to his roots and serve his local Lake Ray Hubbard community. Growing up, he often crossed the IH 30 bridge into Rockwall for various activities, including back-to-school shopping and visiting his favorite restaurant, Chick-fil-A. Dr. Neiman pursued his undergraduate studies in Vision Science at the University of the Incarnate Word (UIW), where he completed his degree in just three years before being accepted into the Rosenberg School of Optometry at UIW.
During his optometry training, Dr. Neiman gained valuable clinical experience through externships. His first externship took place at the Jacksonville VA Hospital, where he focused on ocular emergencies and the diagnosis and management of ocular diseases. His second externship was at a private ophthalmology practice, where he specialized in surgical co-management and primary care optometry.
As a licensed therapeutic optometrist and certified optometric glaucoma specialist, Dr. Neiman specializes in managing various ocular diseases, including diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts. Additionally, he has a particular passion for treating dry eye syndrome, employing state-of-the-art equipment such as Forma and IPL to provide lasting relief to his patients. Dr. Neiman is committed to offering comprehensive primary eye care for families, addressing needs ranging from myopia control for children to fitting adults with their first pair of progressive lenses to combat presbyopia.
Dr. Neiman takes pride in creating a fun and stress-free environment, ensuring that every visit is a positive experience for his patients and their families. Outside of his professional life, he enjoys spending quality time with his wife, son, and their three cats. The couple are avid snowboarders, making it a point to hit the slopes as often as possible during winter months, while also relishing relaxing beach vacations in the summer. In his spare time, Dr. Neiman enjoys watching sports and frequently attends live sporting and music events.
