Dr. Christopher Gentile
Optometrist
Doctor Christopher Gentile has been in private practice since 1989 with expertise in dry eye management and specialty contact lenses. In addition to Bellmore, Dr. Gentile practices in Freeport and Lake Ronkonkoma. From a young age, Dr. Gentile has always had an interest in biology and found the eye to be fascinating. As someone who struggled with vision issues, he was amazed by how much his vision improved with each eye appointment and knew the world of Optometry was the right path for him.
Dr. Gentile is a graduate of the prestigious SUNY College of Optometry.

Epigenetics is the study of biological mechanisms that will switch genes on and off. The different combinations of genes that are turned on or off is what makes each one of us unique and an important element when diagnosing/ treating eye disease.
