Katzen Eye Group

The Katzen Eye Group (KEG) has a long standing tradition of excellence in patient care and pioneering achievements in the field of ophthalmology. Today, KEG is positioned as the largest private eye care practice in the state of Maryland. What was a humble beginning during infancy, one doctor and a single exam room has evolved into a practice consisting of 4 state-of-the-art facilities and 23 doctors. The philosophy of KEG has always been to provide attentive patient care through the combination of leading-edge medical technology with a warm, considerate atmosphere. KEG has provide comprehensive eye care to the greater Baltimore Metropolitan area for 4 decades. KEG is renowned for innovations and pioneering accomplishments in ophthalmology. We were among the first practices in the country to utilize intraocular lenses and Phacoemulsification for cataract surgery, and the YAG laser was first used for eye care in the United States by KEG. In addition, KEG has performed successful refractive surgery procedures for patients since 1978. The practice model capitalizes on the synergy produced by combining ophthalmology, optometry, and optical care under one roof, where we can offer our patients a full menu of service related to their eyes. Katzen Eye Group is the vision of Dr. Leeds Katzen, M.D., our founder. This vision can be better understood through Dr. Katzen's own words. "Practice doesn't always make perfect, but perfect, now that makes a great practice."
