Cara Frasco, O.D., M.S., FAAO

Dr. Frasco earned her Doctoral degree from The Ohio State University College of Optometry, where she graduated first in her class. She concurrently completed a Masters of Science degree in Vision Science, through her study of the eye movements of children with learning problems. She then elected to complete an additional year of Residency training in Pediatric Optometry at the University of Houston in Texas.

Dr. Frasco was one of the first local optometrists to begin examining babies under the InfantSEE program in 2005. “I feel that the opportunity to assess babies between six and twelve months of age is so invaluable that I volunteer my time for every InfantSEE examination. I am able to identify eye problems and children at risk for ‘lazy eye’ before their vision is affected.”

In addition to her work with Settlers Walk and Middletown EyeCare, Dr. Frasco also works with Dayton pediatric ophthalmologist, Richard Liston, MD. Dr. Frasco serves as an externship preceptor for The Ohio State University College of Optometry.

Dr. Frasco is certified in the Treatment and Management of Ocular Disease. She has achieved Fellowship in the American Academy of Optometry. She is a volunteer presenter of the Real Eyes educational program at local elementary schools. She is a member of the American Optometric Association and the Ohio Optometric Association.
