Dr. Anjali Paramanandam received her Bachelors of Science in Biochemistry & Cell Biology at University of California, San Diego and a Doctorate in Optometry at the University of California, Berkeley. She is working towards a residency in ocular disease with the Indian Health Service while delivering the highest standard of eye care to the Durango area.

Dr. P’s journey began in a private practice many years ago as a high school student, where she found a lifelong passion for patient care that inspired her to pursue her optometry education. During her training, she specialized in managing a wide range of ocular diseases, demonstrating a deep understanding of conditions such as glaucoma, dry eye syndrome, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. She is especially passionate about Myopia Control, and has the latest training on how to slow down the progression of nearsightedness in kids! Dr. P believes in the importance of advocating for her patients to receive the best quality care possible and is an active volunteer member of the American Optometric Association. Dr. P is excited to be in the area and to continue to serve the Durango community!
