MD, FAAO, Board-Certified Ophthalmologist (fellowship-trained cornea & refractive)
Dr. Steven E. Kane, MD, FAAO is a board-certified, fellowship-trained ophthalmologist and the founder of Tailored Eyes in his hometown of Venice, FL, specializing in cataract, cornea, and refractive surgery. He graduated summa cum laude from William and Mary (Phi Beta Kappa) and cum laude from Thomas Jefferson Medical College, completed his ophthalmology residency at the University of Florida, and finished a cornea fellowship at the University of Pittsburgh. His refractive offerings include LASIK and refractive lens exchange, while his surgical signature is laser-assisted cataract surgery and small-incision cornea transplantation, an area in which he is internationally recognized and serves as an advisor and faculty instructor for the Lions Eye Institute for Transplant and Research. He treats a broad range of patients seeking both vision correction and complex corneal disease management, and is affiliated with Sarasota Memorial Hospital Venice and Morton Plant Hospital. Tailored Eyes is a smaller, surgeon-founded boutique practice rather than a large multi-location group, and Dr. Kane carries strong patient satisfaction ratings (roughly 4.9 of 5).
