The Eye Doctors Behind Manatee Eye Care

Our eye doctors offer more than clinical skill. They bring decades of hands-on experience, patient-first values, and a genuine care philosophy to every visit.

Dr. Robert Rego and Dr. Abigail Zielke each bring advanced clinical training and diverse specialties to the table. From pediatric eye care to complex disease management, they take time to listen, explain, and customize care for every patient.

What truly sets them apart is their shared belief in collaborative care, where your comfort and understanding come first. This culture extends beyond the exam too; it shapes how our entire team supports you from start to finish.
