About Dr. Imperia

A surgeon you can trust.

Dr. Paul Imperia is a board-certified ophthalmologist specializing in laser vision correction, with over 15 years of experience in Southern Oregon and Northern California. A fellow of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, he has performed more than 20,000 refractive surgeries, including more than 500 other eye doctors, their staff and family members and over 100 members of his own staff.

A participant in the FDA's studies on LASIK, Dr. Imperia has conducted a broad range of research involving corneal and refractive surgery, the physiology of healing after laser surgery, immunologic diseases of the eye, and drug studies involving patients' post-operative comfort. He has been published in numerous peer-reviewed journals and textbooks.

One of the Pacific Northwest's most experienced refractive surgeons, Dr. Imperia teaches fellow ophthalmologists and optometrists in the field of refractive and corneal surgery.

Dr. Imperia was graduated summa cum laude in 1979 with a degree in biology from Lafayette College in Easton, Pennsylvania. He received his medical degree, with honors, from Albany Medical College in New York in 1983, and completed an internship in internal medicine and an ophthalmology residency at Case Western Reserve University's University Hospitals of Cleveland, Ohio. He entered private practice in 1991 following a fellowship in cornea and refractive surgery at the prestigious Jules Stein Eye Institute at UCLA.

One of Dr. Imperia's most unique qualifications is that he has had LASIK himself. Legally blind without correction before surgery, Dr. Imperia's LASIK procedure resulted in the 20/20 vision he enjoys today. Dr. Imperia understands the questions and concerns you may have when considering laser vision correction and can respond with the absolute confidence of someone who not only performs but has experienced the procedure himself.
