Dr. Bauer has been an Optometrist in Colorado Springs since 2009. He obtained his BS in biology with a minor in chemistry from Northern State University in Aberdeen SD and later attended Pacific University College of Optometry in Forest Grove OR.

His main focus is dry eyes, tired eyes, and irritated eyes. He strives to stay on top of all new treatment options.  His ultimate goal is to treat all patients as if they were his neighbor or family member, he does not recommend anything for his patients that he would not recommend for himself.

He loves pickleball and finding a nice Colorado patio to enjoy a cocktail or coffee with his wife Nayeli.
