Collins, our practice founder.

Moving South to Treat Southerners

From the time Dr. Collins founded his practice in 2004 to today, news of the Collins Vision team’s level of patient care spread and loyal clients referred friends and family to the office. This growth led Dr. Collins to search for a physician who shared his family values and commitment to providing exceptional care with a focus on keeping abreast of the latest technology and techniques for his second location. He found that and more in Dr. Friedrichs.

A recently transplanted midwesterner with a passion for the outdoors, Dr. Friedrichs and his family have embraced the beauty and wonder of Southwest Florida. “It was paramount to me to join an ophthalmology practice, after leaving my solo practice of 12 years, where patient care and outcomes are the highest priority,” Dr. Friedrichs says. As a former practice owner, he knows the importance of ensuring every aspect of his patients’ care is handled personally and professionally.

An Expert in Eye Care

Dr. Jason FriedrichsDr. Friedrichs’ areas of expertise include refractive surgery (for cataracts and LASIK), state-of-the-art glaucoma treatments, and blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)—a delicate procedure requiring impressive skill and expertise. He also has considerable experience in comprehensive eye care, including the management of many common—and less common—eye diseases and conditions.

A board-certified ophthalmologist, Dr. Friedrichs earned his medical degree from the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Rockford and completed his residency at the renowned University of Iowa Department of Ophthalmology, deemed one of the best ophthalmology training centers in the country by Ophthalmology Times and U.S. News & World Report.

As an athlete, coach and photographer, Dr. Friedrichs appreciates how his vision impacts every aspect of his life and is devoted to his patients with personalized care. Both he and Dr. Collins specialize in Refractive Cataract Surgery, where the desired outcome is the removal of the cataract and a reduced dependency on glasses—with one operation. An advanced procedure that goes beyond traditional cataract surgery to deliver exceptional results, Refractive Cataract Surgery is customized to each patient’s unique vision, goals and lifestyle.

Drs. Friedrichs and Collins are refractive specialists with significant experience in customized LASIK, offering their patients the opportunity for visual freedom that comes without dependency on glasses or contacts.
