Honoring Dr. Brennan P. Greene: 30 Years of Compassionate Care
After three decades of dedicated service to our patients, Dr. Greene is retiring from clinical practice. In recognition of his outstanding contributions and unwavering commitment, we have named one of our procedure rooms in his honor.
Dr. Greene was born and raised in Louisville, KY. He attended St. Xavier High School and Bellarmine University before completing medical school and his residency in ophthalmology at the University of Louisville. Known for his attention to detail and exceptional bedside manner, Dr. Greene found true joy in caring for patients and performing minor surgical procedures — many of them in this very room.
To our patients who have known and trusted Dr. Greene over the years: THANK YOU for being part of his remarkable journey. His legacy of excellence, compassion, and dedication lives on through the doctors who continue to provide exceptional care at The Eye Care Institute.
Please join us in congratulating Dr. Greene on his retirement and honoring his incredible 30-year career!
Shoutout to our neighbor, Signarama, for helping us create this awesome plaque!

Celebrating 30 Years of Leadership: Congratulations to Our CEO, Mark Prussian!
Today we celebrate an incredible milestone—Mark Prussian’s 30th anniversary with The Eye Care Institute!
For the past three decades, Mark has been the heart and engine behind our practice.

Every decision Mark makes is rooted in integrity, compassion, and a deep commitment to our staff, doctors, and patients. He leads with intention, carries the tough burdens so others don’t have to, and works tirelessly to ensure our success.
We are beyond grateful for the leadership, wisdom, and dedication Mark has brought to ECI over the last 30 years. Thank you, Mark—for your vision, your heart, and your unwavering belief in this practice and the people in it.
Here’s to 30 years of impact—and to the future you continue to shape. 💙
