At EyeCare Partners, it's our people who make the difference. We thank Ryan Wiggins O.D., Area Medical Director in Scottsdale and an optometrist with Nationwide Vision, for reminding us why. In honor of Nationwide's 40th anniversary, Dr. Wiggins speaks to the team and highlights what makes them so special: their dedication, tenure and commitment to delivering the highest quality eye care.

We're proud to join Dr. Wiggins in celebrating the long-standing team members who embody our mission every day.

At EyeCare Partners, we believe every child deserves the chance to see clearly and thrive. That's why, since 2019, we've partnered with Kids Vision for Life St. Louis (KVFL).

With two vans serving more than 180 area schools, KVFL provides thousands of free vision screenings, eye exams and prescription glasses to kids who might not otherwise have access.

This year, our Distribution Center donated thousands of new frames and cases, and team members from our Ballwin Support Center volunteered to sort and pack 650 student bags with eyeglass cases, cleaning kits and educational resources.

This partnership is a powerful example of how we are sharing our vision of excellence, enhancing sight and empowering brighter futures in the communities we serve.

EyeCare Partners congratulates two of our outstanding physicians on being named among Kansas City’s 2025 Top Doctors by Kansas City Magazine: Timothy Cavanaugh, M.D., with Cavanaugh Eye Center and Ann Stechschulte, M.D., with Stiles Eyecare Excellence: Cataracts & Glaucoma .

Both ophthalmologists serve patients in Overland Park, Kan., bringing exceptional skill and compassionate care to the community. Dr. Cavanaugh specializes in corneal procedures, LASIK and cataract surgery. Dr. Stechschulte specializes in cataract and glaucoma treatment.

This recognition is especially meaningful as it is based on peer nominations and a rigorous vetting process by Castle Connolly Top Doctors. Fewer than 7% of physicians nationwide earn this distinction, and both Dr. Cavanaugh and Dr. Stechschulte have been recognized multiple times.

This summer, Marwan Abdulaal, M.D., a retina specialist with Cincinnati Eye Institute, an EyeCare Partners practice, joined a mission trip with the Syrian American Medical Society to combat one of the leading preventable causes of childhood blindness: retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).

Dr. Abdulaal spent months preparing for the trip to train eye doctors in Syria and to help develop protocols for a national ROP screening and treatment program, now adopted by the Ministries of Health and Education. His efforts mean premature infants will be screened earlier, treated sooner and given the best chance at a lifetime of healthy vision.

This work is a powerful example of how EyeCare Partners physicians extend their expertise beyond the clinic to make a global impact.

Healthy vision is foundational to a child’s development, impacting everything from learning in the classroom to performance in sports. As eye care professionals, we know that early, proactive steps such as routine eye exams and protective eyewear can prevent common issues and support lifelong ocular health.

At EyeCare Partners, we’re committed to advancing awareness and providing the clinical expertise families can trust to safeguard children’s sight today and for the future.
