Dr. Hill is a fellowship-trained ophthalmologist who brings experience in cornea transplantation, anterior segment and cataract surgery and refractive surgical procedures to Cornea & Cataract Consultants of Nashville.

As Nashville’s premier ophthalmological solution, Cornea and Cataract Consultants of Nashville is committed to providing the highest level of personal care to every patient at their three offices in Nashville, Franklin, and Murfreesboro. The group includes medical doctors who are trained in medical vision care and eye surgery, with fellowship training in the care and surgery of the cornea. Every patient will see a surgeon for preoperative assessment and postoperative care, and the doctors are available after hours if needed for emergencies.

Possessing a solid educational background, Dr. Hill graduated cum laude from the University of Notre Dame, where he received his Bachelor of Science degree.

Ophthalmology is a branch of medicine and surgery, which deals with the diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders. Ophthalmologists are experts in the diseases, functions, and anatomy of the eye. They may provide routine care such as vision testing, as well as prescribe and fit eyeglasses or contact lenses. However, ophthalmologists are also surgeons. They repair traumatic injuries to the eye and perform cataract, glaucoma, and corneal surgery.

On a more personal note, Dr. Hill’s hobbies and interests include podcasts and sports (MLB, NCAA, NFL).
