About Dr. Zimski
Born and raised in South Florida, Dr. Zimski earned her Bachelor of Science with Honors from Florida State University. Upon graduation, she pursued a career in medicine, completing her medical school training through the University of South Florida in Tampa. Exposed to a number of paths and specialties within the field of medicine, Dr. Zimski was drawn to ophthalmology.
Dr. Zimski interned at Presbyterian St. Luke’s Hospital in Denver and went on to become Chief Resident during her ophthalmology residency at the University of Colorado Rocky Mountain Lions Eye Institute.
Enjoying the sunshine and mountains of Denver, Dr. Zimski decided to stay, opening up her practice, Uptown Eye Associates, and making Denver her home along with her husband, daughter and Australian shepherds. She truly enjoys getting to know her patients and providing the highest quality care for them.
The Shift to Dry Eye
As a board-certified ophthalmologist with a special interest in ocular surface disease, Dr. Zimski spent many years in private practice where she saw an increasing number of patients struggling with eye discomfort, redness and fluctuating vision. Finding that common recommendations such as artificial tears were rarely effective, Dr. Zimski decided to seek out better solutions through research studies, conferences, and engaging thought leaders in the ocular surface disease space. With various treatment options available in the market, she wanted to bring the best new technology into her practice and to integrate it in a stepwise approach to achieve the best results for her patients.
