Dr.Spencer Fuller graduated as a Wheatley Student Scholar Summa cum laude with university honors from Brigham Young University with a BA in Italian before attending medical school at the University of California San Diego. While in medical school, he was recognized for his compassionate approach to medical care by induction into the Gold Humanism Honor Society, and completed research on health systems strengthening for pediatric oncology care in Tijuana, Mexico. He took a one-year hiatus to pursue a transformative Master in Public Health (MPH) degree from the Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health emphasizing public health ophthalmology, epidemiology, and child and family health.
After medical school Dr. Fuller completed ophthalmology residency at Washingrton University in St. Louis. In residency, he received the Rosenbaum research award for research excellence for his work on economic modeling of primary care based, artificial intelligence-assisted diabetic retinopathy screening, and received the Clinical Service aard for outstanding performance during his second year of residency. His formal training concluded with a two-year fellowship in vitreoretinal surgery at the University of Utah’s Moran Eye Center, which ranks in the nation’s Top 10 eye hospitals. During his time at the Moran Eye Center, he was awarded a VitreoRetinal Surgery Foundation (VRSF) Research award which allowed him and a team of researchers to study the utility of high-resolution OCT and FLIO for patients who develop Plaquenil-related retinal toxicity. One highilight from hit time in fellowship was traveling to the only eye center in Kumasi, Ghana to assist in teaching vitreoretinal surgeryto their fellows-in-training. Dr. Fuller currently serves as adjunct faculty for the UNR School of Medicine and is actively involved in the education of medical students.
Conditions We Treat
Macular Degeneration
We will provide you with the latest and most advanced treatment for dry and wet macular degeneration, including pharmaceutical and surgical interventions, including 360 degree macular rotation in select cases.
Macular Disease
We specialize in diseases involving the center of the retina. We also have state of the art equipment to image your macula. These conditions, such as macular holes, macular pucker and vitreo-macular degeneration, can severely affect central vision but are often amenable to surgical and in some cases, non surgical management.
Retinal Tears and Detachments
We can often fix these potentially blinding conditions in the office but also have ready access to several operating rooms as needed.
Diabetic Retinopathy and other Vascular Diseases
With extensive experience in surgical, laser, and medical treatment for diabetic retinopathy and other vascular diseases, you can be assured that all treatment options will be available to you. We will work closely with your medical doctor to optimize your diabetic control and prevent complications of retinopathy.
Uveitis
Drs. Dhindsa and Fuller have experience in treating a wide range of uveitis (ocular inflammation). We also often work in concert with the former president of the American Uveitis Society, Dr. Albert Vitale at the Moran Eye Institute, for indicated cases.
Inherited Retinal Disease
Drs. Dhindsa and Fuller have worked in geographic regions with a plethora of genetic conditions and will update you on the latest treatment and trials depending on your condition. These conditions can also have secondary complications which we will manage.
Lens Surgery
Northern Nevada has many excellent cataract surgeons. However should there be a need for advanced techniques to remove your natural lens or place an intraocular lens implant, Drs. Dhindsa and Fuller can take care of this for you.

Patient Testimonials
“I have been seeing Dr. Dhindsa as a patient since 2006 and have been very happy with his care of my eyes. He has always shown great interest in my problems and the fact I can still see is a tribute to his skills. I have met few doctors who have as good a “bedside manner” or patient-doctor relationship as does Dr. Dhindsa. I only wish some of my other doctors were as good. I give the highest recommendation to anyone needing the services of a truly great retinal specialist to use Dr. Hardeep Dhindsa as your doctor.”

“Dr. Dhindsa is an extremely skilled and gifted surgeon and also a very caring and compassionate person. He donates his talent and operates on many people in poor countries throughout the world, who would not otherwise have their sight repaired. I would recommend him to anyone.”
— Patient MP
“Experiencing a retina tear is scary. I went to my cataract surgeon with the problem and was immediately sent to Dr. Dhindsa. Even though it was Friday noon and the weekend was almost there, within three hours I was admitted to Renown Hospital and he repaired my eye. I went home that evening. My eye healed beautifully. Dr. Dhindsa followed up with check-ups and was always available for questions or concerns.”
