Get to know Ophthalmologist Dr. Kelly J. Frasier, who serves patients in Texas.

A respected ophthalmologist and refractive surgeon, Dr. Frasier joined the surgical team at Kleiman Evangelista Eye Centers of Texas in October of 2014, operating out of the offices in Arlington and Southlake.

He shares Kleiman Evangelista Eye Centers’ passion for enhancing patients’ vision and providing exceptional care by staying on top of the latest technological advances in ophthalmology. Some of his areas of specialty include LASIK surgery, glaucoma treatment, and cataract surgery.

A native of Odessa, Texas, Dr. Frasier graduated from West Texas A&M University and went on to earn his medical degree from the UT School of Medicine at San Antonio. He completed his internship at Texas Tech, where he was a member of the AOA Honor Society. 

Offering advanced technologies to optimize patient outcomes, he came to Kleiman Evangelista Eye Centers after eight years of operating his own practice, Frasier Eye Care, in Lubbock, Texas.

Board-certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology, Dr. Frasier is a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the Texas Medical Association, and the Tarrant County Medical Association.

Ophthalmology is a branch of medicine and surgery, which deals with the diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders. Ophthalmologists are experts in the diseases, functions, and anatomy of the eye. They may provide routine care such as vision testing, as well as prescribe and fit eyeglasses or contact lenses. However, ophthalmologists are also surgeons. They repair traumatic injuries to the eye and perform cataract, glaucoma, and corneal surgery.

As a testament to his success, Dr. Frasier has been the recipient of Patients’ Choice Award (2018, 2017, 2014) and Compassionate Doctor Recognition (2018, 2017).
