I am a retina specialist practicing in Central Florida. As a retina specialist, I treat and perform eye surgery on patients with macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and retinal detachments.

My wife, Brenda, and I settled in the Orlando, Florida area after I finished my fellowship to become a retina specialist. Brenda is also a doctor. She and I met at Georgetown Medical school where she was studying to become an Ob/Gyn.

To become a retina specialist, I had to complete a fellowship allowing me to subspecialize.My specialty is Ophthalmology whereas my sub-specialty is a retina specialist. My residency at Georgetown University allowed me to provide general eye exams and my fellowship at the University of California, Irvine Medical Center allowed me to sub-specialize as a retina specialist.

To completely round out my education, I have a Masters of Public Health (MPH) from Johns Hopkins.

At my current practice, Florida Retina Consultants, we provide retinal care to central Florida, with offices in Lake Mary, Lakeland, Winter Haven, Sebring, and Zephyrhills. The group takes care of patients with retinal diseases macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, complications of cataract surgery, detached retinas, etc. At Florida Retina Consultants, I am surrounded by some of the most experienced staff I could ever imagine.  Whether helping me in the office or the operating room, I’ve got experienced support. This means I am able to provide the best retina care imaginable.

I am very proud of the care we provide our patients with retinal diseases. All of us are retina specialists and we work closely with your primary eye care doctor to provide the most modern, comprehensive eye care possible.We have the latest in diagnostic equipment including digital fluorescein angiography and OCT. We have employed a brand new computerized record keeping system to make our office green and environmentally friendly (as well as super-efficient!).

Not everybody has equal access to a retina specialist nor a quality education. Professionally, I’ve developed relationships around the world. I’ve traveled to Africa and Central America to volunteer my surgical skills. Brenda and I established the Moinfar Family Scholarship at Johns Hopkins in honor of my late father. This fund supports graduate studies to qualified students to help them achieve their academic dreams. Quite often, the recipients are international. 

At home, I’m really busy with our 3 boys. I love to weight train and run. I’ve completed several marathons including the Chicago Marathon and the Disney Marathon. 

I hope this page provides you a more personal perspective about me, and helps you make a more knowledgeable, personal decision about your eye care.I look forward to hearing from you or meeting you in person. Please email if you have questions or call to schedule an appointment. Thank you!
