Upon completion of his Ocular Disease externships, he then went on to receive advanced qualification in all contact lens technology, including specialty, gas-permeable and soft contact lenses.
• Emergency Care
  Dr. Kohl is an amazing doctor! My fiancé had an issue with his eye on a Saturday-not normal business hours. We were going to go the emergency room but Dr. Kohl was kind enough to open the clinic for us and take a look at him within 15 minutes of us making the call. He was very kind and professional. You could tell he really loved his job and wants the best for his patients.

Ophthalmologists

• Glaucoma
  At the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary, Harvard Medical School, he completed an advanced fellowship in medical and surgical glaucoma. He has been in private practice at Eye Associates of Boca Raton since 2004 and is the youngest member to have been awarded partnership.

  Dr. Weiss is a native Floridian from Sarasota, Florida. He completed his undergraduate degree in neuroscience at the University of Miami, where he graduated cum laude and ranked number one in his class.  He acquired his Doctor of Medicine at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, serving as the co-president of the prestigious medical honor society Alpha Omega Alpha – a distinction reserved for only the top 5% of each class.  He completed both his ophthalmology residency and his fellowship in cornea and refractive surgery at the world-renowned Bascom Palmer Eye Institute. Dr. Weiss continues to teach the next generation of eye specialists as a voluntary assistant professor at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute and as an affiliate faculty member at the Florida Atlantic University Schmidt College of Medicine.
• Laser Eye Surgery
  In November 2008, Eye Associates of Boca Raton held its first ever Gift of Sight program. This annual event takes place on Tuesday before Thanksgiving each year to provide eye surgery to those who are need, uninsured and have no means to pay for their much needed care. Howard Goldman, MD has been the catalyst for the program and instrumental in getting the physicians, surgical supplies, and medications donated to the event. Other physicians within Eye Associates of Boca Raton who volunteer their time and services include Dr. Douglas Kohl, and Dr. Mark Weiner. The Outpatient Surgery Center of Boca Raton, our own surgery center donates their facility and medical staff as well to this worthy cause.
• Cataracts
  His many accolades include awards for his research investigating new treatments for blinding eye conditions. Dr. Weiss has published several papers in peer-reviewed journals and contributed to numerous textbooks. In 2011, Dr. Weiss became the first resident worldwide to use the Catalys femtosecond laser cataract system.
• Cataract Surgery
  In your parent’s or grandparent’s day, cataract surgery was considered risky, required a lengthy hospital stay and was usually postponed for as long as possible. Today, cataract surgery is performed on an out-patient basis and takes only a few minutes. Patients can then go home and rest in comfort and avoid the inconvenience and expense of staying in a hospital.
• Eye Exam
  Our ophthalmologist will provide you with a comprehensive examination of your eyes to include a thorough external and internal evaluation. Allow one and a half hours for your exam including 20-40 minutes for your eyes to fully dilate. Dilation may cause blurring of your near vision and an increased sensitivity to light for up to 6 hours. We will provide disposable dark sunglasses for you and it may be advisable for you to bring someone to drive you home. A refraction is commonly performed to determine the need for eyeglasses during a comprehensive eye exam. There is a separate charge for this service which is payable on the day of your exam. Because Medicare and most other insurance companies consider a refraction medically unnecessary, they do not reimburse for this service.
