Dr. Melman is a leader in NJ Optometry. He has served as the President of the West Jersey Optometric Society for many years. In 2016 he was awarded Optometrist of the Year by the NJSOP. Dr. Melman has given continuing education lectures on eye disease, diabetes and dry eye conditions. He sees low-vision patients for the Commission for the Blind and Visually impaired.
Our office specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of a wide array of eye diseases and conditions including specialty contact lenses for keratoconus, orthokeratology lenses for myopia management, early assessment of macular degeneration and night vision, and low vision evaluations for those with subnormal vision. We are one of the few offices equipped to provide Zeiss aberration correcting lens which enhances night vision. Recently we have added test lenses that help the color blind enhance their deficient color perception. This can be tried in the office.
His wife (a pediatrician) and three children have helped stimulate his interest in children’s eye care. Locally, he is a member of the Voorhees Business Association, Chabad and Beth Sholom. Personal interests include chess, politics, international affairs and sports. He tries to keep in shape by participating in the JCC adult basketball league.
