Research at Vance Thompson Vision Omaha

Supervised by Dr. Baartman and supported by Vance Thompson Vision’s research department, the team in Omaha is actively studying glaucoma, cataracts, corneal disease, and presbyopia correction as well as refractive treatments. Their efforts to share study opportunities with patients and to help bring new treatments to market contributes to breakthroughs that improve vision and enrich lives.

Studies are ongoing and fall into two categories: sponsored clinical trials, most of which are FDA-monitored; or investigator-initiated trials, studies sparked by our doctors’ desire to understand an already-approved technology better. At any given time, Omaha’s team is working on trials that, in the long run, will bring even more advanced care to their patients.

The Omaha Team

The Omaha team is led by board-certified ophthalmologist Dr. Brandon Baartman, who works hard to put his patients at ease. Much of the time, he accomplishes that through patient education (and a bit of humor when the situation calls for it). His team members have followed his example, and they too provide intentional, competent education to each patient who visits Vance Thompson Vision Omaha.

Dr. Baartman is supported by optometrists John Goertz and Kristin Walton. Along with the rest of the Omaha team, they offer patients the best possible care, the latest advancements in technology, and a welcoming atmosphere to share their concerns and questions.

5.0/5

June 30, 2021

I had no qualms about Dr. Baartman doing my cataract surgery after my eye doctor recommended him highly. Dr. Baartman called me prior to the surgery to explain the procedure, calm my nerves, and answer questions that I might have. From the receptionist, to the vision examiner, to the techs, nurses, and Dr. Baartman, I was treated with dignity and respect. I felt that I was truly pampered.

Seriously the best ever! Not often do you find a doctor that is extremely knowledgeable and down to earth. Dr Baartman explains things so well and so do his staff! Everyone is super friendly and it is just an all around great atmosphere. I am so lucky to have found this place and to have had my surgery completed by Dr Baartman.

I was really afraid to have cataract surgery but entering this office took all the fear away. Anyone needing vision care should see Dr Baartman, the kindest most reassuring person you will ever meet. The staff is exceptional.
