Families across the Buffalo area have trusted Ophthalmology Associates of Western New York with their eye care for over 50 years. We are proud to utilize the latest technology alongside our compassionate care to ensure the best results and most comfortable experience for our patients. It remains our mission to help you live your fullest life by achieving your best, healthiest vision.
Our practice was originally founded in 1970 by Dr. Louis Antonucci after he finished his residency in ophthalmology. Upon completing a fellowship in glaucoma at the University of Toronto, Dr. Charles Niles joined the practice in 1988, allowing us to treat more patients suffering from glaucoma alongside our comprehensive eye care services.
Dr. Antonucci retired in December 2019, but with his hard work and the dedication of our team, our practice is still strong and growing, with five doctors providing quality, compassionate care for patients of all ages.
We are excited to announce that Ophthalmology Associates of Western New York has joined OCLI Vision to have access to a larger network of providers and resources.
As our patients you are top priority, rest assured you will receive the same high-quality care that you are accustomed to. We thank you for trusting us with your eye care needs and look forward to serving the eye care needs of you and your family.

“I highly recommend anyone who’s seeking an experienced glaucoma or cataract specialist to see Dr. Niles! He was absolutely wonderful – very kind, thorough, and professional! I asked a lot of questions, and he answered them all. I’m so thankful for him sharing his expertise with me. The appointment was very efficient; Kim checked me in, the tech took my medical history, and the assistants were of great help. Shout out to Ellen who scheduled me and was very welcoming! Thanks for everything OA!”
