Hussain Elhalis, M.D., is a cataract surgeon in Ocala, fellowship trained in laser vision, cataract, cornea, and refractive surgery. He practices general ophthalmology with a primary interest in refractive laser vision cataract surgery. He uses sutureless techniques and provides the latest in premium lens implant technology. His goal is to allow his patients the opportunity to regain youthful vision and greater independence from glasses and contact lenses. Dr. Elhalis also specializes in laser vision correction with LASIK and PRK, and corneal transplantation using the latest DSAEK and DMAEK techniques.
After graduating with honors in biological sciences from Wayne State University in 2005, Dr. Elhalis attended medical school through the scholar's program at Ross University School of Medicine. He was awarded the highest honors for graduating in the top five percent of his medical school class. It was during medical school that he developed an interest in ophthalmology.
“The field of ophthalmology has already achieved monumental advancements in cataract and laser surgery, resulting in outcomes that could not have been imagined three or four decades ago. The ability to provide these types of outcomes to patients was likely the greatest influencing factor that led me to choose ophthalmology as a career, ” says Dr. Elhalis.
He then completed his internal medicine training at Henry Ford Hospital in Michigan. Dr. Elhalis completed his ophthalmology residency and fellowship specialty training at the University of Florida in Gainesville. During his ophthalmology training, Dr. Elhalis cared for service members at the naval air station in Jacksonville, FL, treating ocular injuries and performing laser vision correction for pilots and navy officers.
Dr. Elhalis is an active member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology, the Florida Society of Ophthalmology, the Cornea Society, the American Society of Cornea & Refractive Surgery, and the International Society of Refractive Surgery. "It is an honor to help my patients achieve their best possible vision and improve their quality of life,” says Dr. Elhalis.

Dr Elhalis is always helpful, provides info needed and has great bedside manner!
Top notch doctor & outstanding surgeon.
Called Ocala Eye because my vision had deteriorated over several months. Covid seemed to have caused vision problems. Dr. Elhais hoped the problem would resolve over a few months. It suddenly got worse and true to his promise he saw me immediately after I called very worried. They checked me throughly and decided that my eyes had become severely dry. I thought I was losing my vision! He offered some very cool tech plugging my ducts right then and there. He advised over the counter dry eye treatments and in less than 10 hours I was back to normal. His calm demeanor and professionalism is so appreciated. Fan for life!
