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.

The Southern Eye Center is the best eye clinic around. Dr. Nelson and his staff are very experienced and treat you like family.
Wonderful place! The works are nice and very helpful.
Love this place and the people. Always great. I wouldn't go anywhere else.
3 hours was a long visit because of lack of exam rooms not available which is what I was told but Other than that I was very happy because I really like the Medical Staff they are TOPS in my book.
Very knowledgeable and courteous. Very professional and still made me feel like family. Took time to address all my concerns. I now can see clearly with 20/15 vision. Thanks for being there when I needed help. Best doctor/ patient relationship I've had in a long time.
They explained everything, which means a lot to me.
Excellent!
