Dr. Michael P. Steele O.D.
Manchester Missouri Optometrist
Dr. Michael Steele has been providing professional eye care to the St. Louis community since 2004 and has extensive experience in pre and post operative care of Lasik, Cataract, and Cornea transplant patients. Through years of experience he has developed an expertise in measuring a precise prescription for your eyes.
Having the ability to spend the appropriate amount of time with each of my patients was a big motivation for opening Steele Vision in 2009. I encourage my patients to ask questions during the exam. I may ask a few questions of you also. A thorough patient history is quite often the most helpful component of a problem solving exam. - Dr. Michael P. Steele
