Recently honored by Newsweek as one of America’s leading cataract surgeons in 2025 and highly regarded as a longstanding leader and trusted presence in Bergen County eye care for more than 25 years, Dr. Scott Pomerantz is the founder of Metro Eye Care, a practice built on clinical excellence and innovation. Dr. Pomerantz is widely respected for both his surgical expertise and his patient-first philosophy. Together with his fellow associates and the loyal Metro Eye Care staff, he has cultivated an environment where compassion, respect, and teamwork are prioritized. Kindness toward one another and toward every patient is central to the culture of the practice, ensuring patients feel welcomed, supported, and confident in their care.

A board-certified ophthalmologist and a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology and the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgeons, Dr. Pomerantz is recognized as a prominent cataract surgeon and one of the first surgeons in Bergen County to offer laser- assisted cataract surgery. This advanced technology allows for a gentler, highly customized procedure with a level of precision that cannot be achieved through traditional manual techniques. By incorporating laser guidance, Dr. Pomerantz is able to correct astigmatism with greater accuracy, leading to improved visual outcomes and enhanced quality of life for his patients.

Over the past decade, cataract surgery has evolved dramatically, and Dr. Pomerantz has remained at the forefront of these advancements. At Metro Eye Care, cataract patients undergo a comprehensive refractive evaluation, including detailed measurements and a personalized surgical plan designed to address the unique characteristics of each eye. These customized plans are carried seamlessly from the office to the operating room, allowing cataract removal and vision correction to occur simultaneously. In today’s era of advanced technology, surgical accuracy has never been more important and Dr. Pomerantz takes that responsibility seriously.

Dr. Pomerantz is particularly proud of his Metro Eye Care team. He is joined by his partner, Sejal Patel, MD, a cataract refractive surgeon who is a fellowship-trained glaucoma specialist and head of dry eye department, David Gerstenfeld, MD, Thomas LoPresti, OD, and James Cindrario, OD. With today’s cutting-edge technology and the specialists’ meticulous attention to detail, patients benefit from unprecedented precision and better visual outcomes than ever before.
