Andrew Benedict, O.D., Now Seeing Patients at Illinois Eye Center

Join us in welcoming Andrew Benedict, O.D., to Illinois Eye Center! Dr. Benedict completed his undergraduate degree from the University of Missouri, and his Doctor of Optometry from the Indiana University School of Optometry. He is fully licensed to diagnose and treat most eye diseases.

“I chose to be an eye doctor because my brother is also an eye doctor and he definitely inspired me to go into this field,” Dr. Benedict said. “What inspires me to come to work to everyday is that I want to learn and become a better eye doctor, as well as to treat and diagnose my patients.”

Dr. Benedict has completed the following rotations:

  • Eye Surgeons of Indianapolis, Indianapolis, IN
  • Quantico Naval Health Base, Quantico, VA
  • Indianapolis Eye Care Center, Indianapolis IN
  • Bloomington Clinic, Bloomington, IN

Dr. Benedict completed his residency at Northeastern State University School of Optometry. He is a member of the American Optometric Association and Beta Sigma Kappa – Optometric Honor Society.

He enjoys hiking, lifting, running, and exploring national parks in his free time. His favorite vacation spot is Yellowstone National Park, and his favorite sports team is the St. Louis Cardinals. He currently resides in Peoria.

“I chose Illinois Eye Center because it has a very supportive, collaborative team,” Dr. Benedict said. “I want my patients to feel that they have received the highest quality of eye care available.”
