Dr. Tucker's practice focuses on helping patients with cataracts regain their vision through a collaborative approach that incorporates each patient's input. He was among the first eye surgeons in Mississippi to implant a Light Adjustable Lens and, in addition to cataract surgery, performs LASIK, comprehensive medical and surgical glaucoma care including minimally invasive glaucoma surgery, and dry eye treatment.
