Dr. David Wagner, Optometrist

Dr. Wagner is the owner and senior optometrist at Wagner Family Eyecare in Seneca, PA. He Graduated from North Clarion High School in 1993 and attended Gannon University and Pennsylvania College of Optometry (PCO) studying in the accelerated 7-year program, graduating Magna Cum Laude with a Doctor of Optometry degree in 2000.

Dr. Wagner specializes in Pediatrics, Low Vision, and Medical Eye Care (including glaucoma, dry eye and macular degeneration), and has special interests in Dry Eye and Macular Degeneration as well as the Vision/Learning connection, which involves the in-depth testing of binocular, accommodative, and eye teaming systems vital to the learning process. Maximizing the learning ability of children is of the upmost importance to Dr. Wagner as he has seen over the last 20+ years how improving their focusing and eye teaming skills can drastically change their lives. Prevention of ocular disease is also a passion of Dr. Wagner, working with diet, lifestyle, and dietary supplements to achieve this.

He volunteers his time with Oil City Rotary, Youth Connection, Second Presbyterian Church and other community organizations. In his spare time (what is that?), Dr. Wagner enjoys landscaping, gardening, traveling, and searching out the foodie restaurants in western PA and beyond.
