Dr. Gregory Leszek was born and raised in Erie's lower east side before moving to Millcreek and attending McDowell High School. Dr. Leszek then attended the Ohio State University, earning a Bachelor of Science in microbiology and a Doctorate in Optometry. Dr. Leszek's early optometric career took him to Miami, FL where, he performed nursing home visits for an ophthalmology group.
Dr. Leszek moved to Orlando, FL where he met the love of his life, Alice, and focused on primary care optometry. Life brought the Leszeks back to Erie in 2017 where Dr. Leszek broadened his experience by working for the Sight Center of NWPA performing low vision evaluations on a patient base with significant vision loss and at Laser Eye Surgery seeing post-surgical LASIK, glaucoma, and cataract patients.
In his spare time, Dr. Leszek enjoys golfing and traveling back to his wife's homeland in Africa.
So whether you require expanded advice on dealing with vision loss, an individual assessment on whether you're a good LASIK candidate, or a doctor to entrust with your entire family's eye care needs, Dr. Leszek would be happy to meet you.

Our Services
Optical Department For those patients needing glasses or contact lenses, we offer a complete optical department. We carry a wide selection of high fashion eyewear and designer frames.
Comprehensive Vision and Eye Health Examinations Regular eye exams are an invaluable tool in maintaining healthy eyes by detecting and preventing disease. Some diseases develop slowly without causing pain or vision loss. Early detection of any problems can reduce the risk of further harm and allow for a choice of treatment options. The entire exam process can take an hour depending on the complexity of the problem. Each patient will be evaluated with a refraction, slit lamp, intraocular pressure and a retinal exam.
Pediatric Eye Care We take pride in maintaining the vision of our younger patients in an environment that is lighthearted and fun. We want to insure the good sight, vision, and eye health for the rest of your child's life and take a preventative approach to his/her general health and eye health. We will work with your child's primary care physician to help keep his/her eyes healthy. It is important that all of our pediatric patients have healthy and efficient visual systems to help make visual demands of learning in school easier and fun.
Contact Lens Exams and Fittings Thanks to the advances in optical technology, almost everyone is a candidate for contact lens use. This includes patients with astigmatism and also those who prefer bifocal or multifocal lenses. At our office, we offer a comprehensive array of contact lenses to suit each individual patient's needs. We offer daily disposables, extended wear soft lenses to gas permeable contact lenses. We offer regular and custom lens services for both healthy and difficult to fit patients.
