Meet Dr. Horn

Dr. Horn trained in internal medicine at Cedars Sinai Medical Center and performed his ophthalmology residency at Northwestern University. This was followed by a fellowship in corneal and refractive surgery at the University of California, San Diego. 

In 1997 he joined Vanderbilt Medical Center specializing in cataract, lens replacement, corneal transplantation, and LASIK surgery. He was awarded the Best Surgical Instructor by the ophthalmology residents he trained. 

In 2005 he started his private practice, Vision For Life, which is dedicated to providing the most advanced technologies in the field of vision correction. Dr. Horn continues to teach other eye surgeons around the world and has been prolific in his clinical research, helping to bring to fruition numerous lens implant technologies. In 2019 he was one of 12 surgeons nationwide selected to investigate the PanOptix lens. The PanOptix lens was the very first trifocal lens implanted in the United States and Dr. Horn was the first to implant PanOptix in Tennessee.

Among Dr. Horn’s numerous awards, he has been selected by his peers as one of the best physicians, one of the best eye surgeons, and one of the top 250 premier cataract surgeons in America.


“The patient experience is the single most important focus of Vision for Life. It’s all about putting patients at ease with warmth, compassion and following through with great results”.

Jeffrey D. Horn, MD


In addition to being a world-class eye surgeon, Dr. Horn is also an accomplished drummer. It only makes sense in Music City that your eye surgeon is also a drummer! Here is what Dr. Horn said about drumming:

“It provided me with an outlet to express myself creatively, and this is still true today. It taught me that practice, hard work, commitment to excellence, and continually trying to improve my abilities were needed to excel. I think I apply those same ideals to medicine and surgery in constantly trying to improve the care I provide my patients.”

Jeffrey D. Horn, MD
