Dr. Joseph L. Meyer

Diplomate, American Board of Ophthalmology

Dr. Joseph Meyer is an award-winning ophthalmologist and a third-generation Texan.

Dr. Meyer grew up in Dallas but quickly fell in love with Central Texas when he moved to Austin to attend The University of Texas. After graduating college, he went on to earn his medical degree with high honors at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston in 1993. Although he enjoyed learning about all aspects of medicine, Dr. Meyer realized that ophthalmology was the field he wanted to spend his life practicing.

After an internship in Internal Medicine, he began his residency in ophthalmology at the prestigious Casey Eye Institute in Portland, Oregon. After completing the three year residency, he finished with a final year as Chief Resident. Oregon was a wonderful experience but Dr. Meyer and his wife, Theresa decided to return home to their Texas roots and be closer to family. In 1998 Dr. Meyer joined a comprehensive ophthalmology group practice in Central Texas, based out of Round Rock and Taylor.

For the last seventeen years, he has honed his clinical and surgical skills and developed a strong bond with his patients, as well as the local community. He prides himself on establishing a relationship with each and every patient, spending extra time interacting and connecting with them. Excellent medical care requires a solid foundation based on a physician’s ability to listen and understand a patient’s issues. For Dr. Meyer, the best compliment is when a patient refers a friend or family member. As a result, he treats, not only families, but generations of patients.

Dr. Meyer wishes to provide patients with a high level of service; from both the physician and the eye care center’s support staff. In keeping with this goal, Dr. Meyer founded Round Rock Eye Consultants, a private practice where the focus is on the individual; with a mission to provide the highest level of medical care that each patient deserves.

His goal is to develop lifelong relationships with his patients and their families, while providing thorough and personalized eye care.

Dr. Meyer is board certified by the American Board of Ophthalmology and is a member of:

  • Travis County Medical Society

  • Texas Medical Association

  • Austin Ophthalmological Society

  • Texas Ophthalmological Association

  • American Academy of Ophthalmology

When he's not working, Dr. Meyer enjoys hiking, biking, and reading. He is married to Dr. Theresa Pham, and they have twin daughters.

Nada Strother

  • Practice Manager
  • Certified Ophthalmic Assistant

Nada has been working side by side with Dr. Meyer since 2005, and has truly found her passion working in the Ophthalmology community. Born and raised in Minnesota, Nada found her way to Texas after serving 6 years in the United States Air Force. The skills and devotion instilled there helped translate well into providing the highest quality of patient care.

She fills her spare time with family and friends, and loves living in a city that values the companionship of her fur-babies as much as she does! She enjoys CrossFit and being outdoors as much as possible. You can usually find her with a rescue or foster dog by her side.
