Dr. Eric Nilsen, O.D.
In 1998, Dr. Eric Nilsen traveled south from his home in upstate New York in search of warm weather and a friendly community where he could set up his optometry practice. He discovered the greater Richmond area and established Nilsen Eye Care (NEC) in suburban Chesterfield County.
Dr. Nilsen graduated from S.U.N.Y. Albany with a Bachelor of Arts in biology and a minor in psychology. He went on to earn his Doctor of Optometry from the New England College of Optometry in Boston.
Dr. Nilsen enjoys educating patients about whole health rather than just eye health. He is a huge animal lover, volunteers with Big Brothers Big Sisters and has a passion for performance driving.
