About UCC
Unity Cataract & Cornea brings cataract surgery, cornea care, retina treatment, and glaucoma management under one roof.
Founded in 2018 by Wake County ophthalmologists, our campus was built so patients can move from consultation to diagnostics to surgery without crossing town.
Whether you need cataract evaluation, ongoing retina therapy, or long-term glaucoma care, UCC offers physician-owned specialty eye care designed around clarity — of vision and of communication.

Patient perspectives
What Our Patients Say
I put off cataract surgery for two years because I was nervous. Dr. Okonkwo explained every lens option in plain language and never rushed me. Surgery day was smoother than I expected, and colors look vivid again — I had forgotten how bright the world could be.
After years of keratoconus progression, Dr. Patel mapped a clear plan and stayed with me through every follow-up. Having diagnostics and specialty visits on the same campus made a stressful process feel manageable.
Dr. Whitfield treats my macular degeneration with patience and consistency. The injection visits are organized, the OCT results are explained, and I never leave wondering what comes next.
