Dr. Benjamin Wilson graduated from residency in 2021 and began his career as a high-volume cataract specialist in Asheville, NC. Motivated to establish his own practice, he joined forces with Dr. Phillips to form Pisgah Eye Surgeons.

A board-certified comprehensive ophthalmologist, Dr. Wilson brings expertise in cataract surgery, including minimally invasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS)—a technique that treats glaucoma simultaneously with cataract removal and intraocular lens implantation. Born in Florida, he earned his bachelor's degree in Microbiology and Cell Science from the University of Florida before attending the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. He completed his internship at Bassett Medical Center in Cooperstown and his ophthalmology residency at SUNY Downstate in Brooklyn.

When he's not in the operating room, Dr. Wilson enjoys mountain biking, fishing, skiing, hiking, or walking his Australian Shepherd Josie.
