David P. Nelson

Dr. David Paul Nelson graduated from The Ohio State University College of Optometry in 1998. After graduation, he and his family moved to Madison. Dr. Dave practices full scope optometry with an interest in ocular disease prevention. He diagnoses, treats, and manages ocular diseases such as dry eyes, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. Dr. Dave prescribes the latest technologies in eyewear and contact lenses. For purist vision, he recommends digitally surfaced, thin, light lenses and determines the prescription that is right for you. Dr. Dave enjoys the challenge of fitting complex contact lens patients. Whether the problem is dry eyes, astigmatism, and/or near vision problems, Dr. Dave will find a contact lens that is right for you.

Prior to entering optometry, Dr. Dave graduated from Iowa State University with an Industrial Engineering degree. He worked at the Quaker Oats Company as an industrial engineer, supervisor, and computer programmer. Dr. Dave enjoys spending time with his wife and three children. He is a member of the Wisconsin and American Optometric Associations (WOA/AOA) and worked his way up to WOA President in 2017. Dr. Dave was awarded the WOA Optometrist of the Year in 2019.

'I love coming to work every day and watching the transformation in our patients. It never ceases to amaze me how being able to see clearly and without pain boosts their confidence and restores independence. So many people are living with limitations due to visual impairment – and might not even know it! Working here with Dr. Anderson has shown me how even the smallest improvement in one’s sight can make a huge positive impact on their lives.'

'As a child, I had a hard time at school. I had difficulty reading and was labeled a “slow learner.” It was only later revealed that vision problems were at the root of my difficulties. Once I saw an eye care professional and was fitted with corrective lenses, my performance in school excelled. We see these type of success stories every day at Dr. Anderson and it’s one of the many things that makes my career so rewarding!”
