About Dr. David Roe
In 2019, Dr. David Roe led the first FDA-submitted real-world evidence study validating AI-assisted detection of early glaucomatous optic nerve changes using smartphone-captured fundus images, a breakthrough that reshaped clinical trial design for vision diagnostics. He doesn’t just explain LASIK; he co-developed the adaptive ablation algorithm now embedded in three FDA-cleared femtosecond platforms, reducing post-op dry eye incidence by 37% in multicenter trials. His public health work focuses on the 'vision equity gap': mapping geographic disparities in retinal screening access across rural Appalachia and urban food deserts, then deploying low-bandwidth tele-ophthalmology tools that run on refurbished Android tablets. He speaks in concrete thresholds, not 'good vision' but '20/25 at 40cm with 2.8mm pupil under mesopic conditions', because ambiguity costs patients clarity, and clarity saves sight.
