Ophthalmology Associates was established in 1969 by Dr. Joe Bussey and Dr. Rufus Roberts. Both Dr. Bussey and Dr. Roberts had previously practiced in Fort Worth with another well known physician, Dr. Harold Beasley. The founding of Ophthalmology Associates facilitated their vision to create a larger multi-specialty eye clinic that, in addition to continuing to offer general ophthalmology care, would be better staffed and equipped to provide coverage of all the different types of specialized eye care than would be reasonable to expect in the traditional general ophthalmology practice setting.In pursuit of that objective, they developed a new larger clinic facility in Fort Worth on Henderson Street, near the central medical district, and recruited Dr. Tom Smith, a specialist in Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. Dr. Smith practiced with OA until his retirement. Within a year of Dr. Smith's arrival, Dr. Dan Bruhl, a Cataract & Lens Implant specialist, joined OA and continues to practice with OA to the present time. Over time, several highly qualified specialists joined the group to provide additional expertise for Glaucoma, Cataract & Lens Implant, Retinal, Corneal, Pediatric & Strabismus, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Neurological, and Refractive Eye Disorders. A considerably larger five story main office facility was completed nearby in 1993 and continues to serve as the main location to the present time. This facility allows Ophthalmology Associates to provide the full range of eye care services including general examinations and eyeglass and contact lens prescriptions as well as all the sub-specialist care and our new LASIK facility to eliminate the need for glasses in most cases.It's a beautiful world, you deserve to see it well!
