Richard Greene, O.D. received his Doctor of Optometry from the Illinois College of Optometry in 1981 and earned his Bachelor of Science in Microbiology from the University of Central Florida.

Dr. Greene began practicing optometry in 1981 in Jacksonville, Florida, then moved to St. Augustine a year later to start a solo private practice career. He considers it a tremendous opportunity to provide vision care to his patients, which can enhance their quality of life. He feels proud to play a vital part in helping people with their visual needs by providing them with valuable eye health education and treatment.

Dr. Greene enjoys participating in civic organizations, including The St. Augustine Jaycees, of which he became president, Civitan International, the Boy Scouts of America, and the Sertoma Club. He has also been active in the American Optometric Association, the Southern Council of Optometrists, the Florida Optometric Association, and the Northeast Florida Optometric Society, where he participated on the Board and served as its president.

When Dr. Greene is not treating patients, he enjoys boating and fishing, taking his two golden retrievers on long beach walks, playing the keyboard in a classic rock band, and traveling.
