Our Mission

Since it’s founding in 2001, Bowden Eye & Associates has been dedicated to the protection and preservation of the treasured gift of sight. We pursue that mission by providing every patient in our care with the latest, most proven treatments and technologies.

We always strive to be compassionate and caring, recognizing the trust you place in us and grateful for the opportunity to care for your vision and cosmetic needs.

The commitment to excellence of our ophthalmologists, optometrists, and our staff to the goal of establishing the benchmark for vision and cosmetic care begins with our founder, renowned cornea specialist and surgeon, Dr. Frank W. Bowden, III. Dr. Bowden was the Eyecare Physician for the Jacksonville Jaguars from 1995-2017.

In 2012 we added another corneal specialist to our team. Dr. Sarah Darbandi has been with Bowden Eye & Associates since the summer of 2012. Alongside both Dr. Bowden and Dr. Darbandi, we have a team of Optometric Physicians that are here to treat patients with all level of eye care needs, whether this be routine family eyecare and the need for glasses and contact lenses, or a patient with trauma, pathology, or surgical needs.

No other team in Northern Florida is more qualified or more committed to your care.
