Bio
Deena Tailor, O.D. practices optometry after completing a Doctor of Optometry at Salus University's Pennsylvania College of Optometry. A Bachelor of Science in biology preceded that degree. Rotational training introduced Dr. Tailor to low-vision care, contact lens work, primary eye care, and the management of ocular disease.
Dr. Tailor's day-to-day focus includes routine and medical eye exams, contact lens fittings, and attention to the ocular surface. Patients needing lenses beyond a standard fit are seen for specialty contact lenses, and those considering or recovering from vision-correction surgery receive pre-operative evaluation and post-operative follow-up. Everyday visits also screen for dry eye and other anterior segment conditions, an area Dr. Tailor studied in depth during optometry training.
Professional memberships include the American Optometric Association and both the Virginia and Northern Virginia Optometric Associations. In Dr. Tailor's own words, "I want every visit to feel unhurried, so patients leave understanding their eyes and their options. Good vision is part of everyday life, and my goal is to help each person see clearly and comfortably for the long run." Patients can visit Dr. Tailor at The Eye Center in Fairfax, Alexandria, and Manassas.
