(447)

Woolfson Eye Institute, founded in 1996 and headquartered in Sandy Springs, is one of the leading LASIK surgery providers in the Southeast. This is because Dr. Jonathan Woolfson, a LASIK pioneer, along with the other LASIK surgeons in the practice have combined to perform well over 100,000 LASIK procedures. In fact, over 300 eye doctors have entrusted Dr. Woolfson himself with their own LASIK surg

ery. Simply put, you can trust the doctor the doctors trust! In addition to our Atlanta LASIK practice, we also have eight other LASIK practices around the Southeastern United States (including North Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia). So if you live or work in or around the Sandy Springs area and are looking for an ophthalmologist to perform your laser eye surgery, you won't find more qualified providers than those in your own backyard.

Last month, we hosted our first annual Woolf on the Run in Knoxville 🏃

Held at Victor Ashe Park on 4/25/26, the event brought together our community for an incredible cause, with proceeds benefiting the Tennessee School for the Blind in Nashville.

It was a howlin’ good time supporting a mission close to our hearts, and we’re so grateful to everyone who came out to run, walk, cheer, and make a difference.

Events like this are a reminder that better vision truly leads to a better life, not just inside our offices, but throughout the communities we serve.

Thank you to everyone who helped make our first year so special. We can’t wait to continue growing this event for years to come!

Moments like this are why we do what we do 💜🥹

Your wedding day is something you plan for, dream about, and never want to miss a single second of. To be able to see it clearly… the people, the details, the emotion… exactly as it’s happening.

Hearing Molly say she was able to fully enjoy her wedding day with two good eyes is everything to us!! Because better vision means being able to be fully present for the moments that matter most.

Do you have a big day coming up? We would love to see you for a consultation.

Meet Dr. Byron "Trip" Cook 👋🏻

Atlanta-raised, highly trained, and deeply committed to the patients he serves, Dr. Cook’s journey into ophthalmology started with his own LASIK experience. After years of dealing with contacts, he saw firsthand what clear vision could change.

That moment led him down a path of advanced training in cornea, cataract, and refractive surgery, including a fellowship at UT Southwestern, where he specialized in LASIK, laser cataract surgery, and cornea transplants.

Today, his focus is simple: safety, precision, and results. From utilizing the latest technology to helping patients avoid more invasive procedures, Dr. Cook is constantly working to deliver better outcomes and a better experience. But what truly sets him apart is how he cares for patients.

✅A practice that feels personal.
✅A team that treats you like family.
✅And a commitment to making sure you leave seeing better than when you walked in.

If you’ve been considering advanced vision correction surgery or eye care, this is the level of expertise and care you can expect.

FAQ: Can LASIK fix astigmatism?

Watch this reel by Dr. Woolfson as he breaks down one of the most common questions we get.

Astigmatism simply means there’s a slight irregular shape to the surface of the eye, which causes blurred vision.

In the vast majority of cases, the answer is yes, LASIK can correct it.

There are some rare situations where it may not be fully correctable or may be related to another eye condition, but that’s exactly why a personalized evaluation matters.

If you’ve been told you have astigmatism and have been hesitant to consider LASIK because of it, we encourage you to take the next step.

Meet Dr. Kevin Jackson, cataract and refractive surgeon at our Johnson City, TN location 👁️

Dr. Jackson's path to ophthalmology started long before medical school. He began as a technician for an eye doctor, and the moment he saw firsthand the impact a surgeon could have on a patient's vision, he knew exactly what he wanted to do with his life. That passion has never left him.

One of his most unforgettable patients was a non-verbal nursing home resident who had cataract surgery on both eyes. He couldn't tell the team what had changed. But his nurses could. For the first time in years, they found him in his room shaving on his own, because he could finally see himself in the mirror 🥹

That is the kind of story that reminds us all why this work matters.

Dr. Jackson is now proud to be part of a team at Woolfson Eye Institute that shares that same commitment to patients first, starting with Dr. Woolfson himself, who treats every single patient like family.

If you are in the Johnson City area and have been thinking about cataract surgery or LASIK, come meet Dr. Jackson. We would love to take care of you. 👇

Before & After 👁️‼️

Kristie took it easy and let her results do the talking!

After her blepharoplasty with Dr. Walrath, Kristie rested up, followed her post-op care, and let the healing happen. And just look at her eyes now! She did not have an eye crease before. She has one now, just like she had hoped for.

That is the power of blepharoplasty done right! The excess skin is gone, the heaviness is lifted, and that natural fold she had been missing is finally back. Kristie works alongside our surgeons every single day. She knew what was possible, and she trusted Dr. Walrath to get her there.

If you have lost your eye crease and want it back, we would love to talk ⬇️

Today is the day for Kristie!

Our very own team member is in the OR with Dr. Walrath right now, and we could not be more excited for her. Kristie sees the results of blepharoplasty every single day working alongside our surgeons. Today, she gets to experience it for herself.

Watching someone you work with trust you with their own eyes is something special. That is the Woolfson standard, and we do not take it lightly.

Come back tomorrow for her results! 👁️
