Our Eye Doctors

Originally from Ohio, Dr. Diaz moved to New Hampshire as a teen. She was fitted for contact lenses in high school and was intrigued by the process. Her eye doctor encouraged her to pursue optometry and from there her career as an optometrist was set. She graduated from the Pennsylvania College of Optometry in Philadelphia, and has been practicing for over 25 years. She particularly enjoys nutrition and understanding how diet and lifestyle affect the eyes as well as overall health, so much so that she became certified as a Functional Medicine Practitioner. Dr Diaz and her husband live in Dover, NH, and are active in their church. She loves traveling, hiking, reading, and spending time with her grandsons.

Growing up in NH, Dr. Karen Healy was drawn to optometry by being a long term spectacles wearer herself. Having a keen awareness and sensitivity to her patients’ perspectives, is a hallmark of the care provided by Dr. Healy. In practice for over 25 years, Dr. Healy started her path to be an optometrist at the University of New Hampshire followed by her optometric training at the New England College of Optometry. Dr. Healy’s favorite memory is of a patient who she helped to see her mother for the very first time. A hiker, biker and skier, when Dr. Healy is not in the office, you can find her somewhere in the great outdoors. Helping others enjoy the outdoors, and indoors, by regaining the best sight available to them is the singular focus of Dr. Healy’s practice.

Dr. Tyler Lowe likes to describe his job at Kittery Eye as both doctor and teacher. Caring for others often means teaching them about how best to care for themselves and protect this great resource of our vision. He especially enjoys contact lens fitting and caring for his glaucoma patients. Dr. Lowe has been with the practice since 2010 and hails from Rochester, New Hampshire. Dr. Lowe enjoys movies, skiing, golf and running. He is a resident of Kittery, Maine and spends much of his free time exploring the seacoast area with his wife and two children.​

Dr. Michaud was born and raised in Presque Isle, Maine, where she was exposed to optometry at a young age when she first started wearing glasses and contact lenses in the 6th grade. She received her bachelor’s degree in Biomedical Science from UNH in 2015. She graduated from the New England College of Optometry in 2019 and subsequently completed a residency within the VA Maine Healthcare System. She has experience managing many ocular diseases, including glaucoma, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. She enjoys volunteer work and has participated in two optometric outreach trips, one in the Dominican Republic and another in Mexico. In her spare time, she enjoys hiking, traveling, spending time with her cat Cleo, and trying new restaurants in the Seacoast area.​

All the Kittery Eye Doctors and Staff wish Dr. Seaton a happy and well deserved retirement. His years of service are very much appreciated. We will miss his regular presence in the office and promise to continue in his example of providing the finest in eye care.

The combination of creativity and discipline as an optometrist for the US Army were the secret ingredients in the 40 year eye care career of Dr. David Seaton. Growing up in Ypsilanti, MI, he received his Master’s degree from Harding University and his Doctor of Optometry (O.D.) from the Southern College of Optometry in Memphis, TN.Dr. Seaton holds the distinction of being a Fellow of the American Academy of Optometry. In retirement, Dr. Seaton can be found boating, traveling, or skiing with his family.

Dr. Webb's been intrigued with eyes since his first pair of glasses at age 7, leading him to Colby College, the New England College of Optometry, Atlanta, Germany, and ultimately practice here in Kittery since 1992. A Maine native, Dr. Webb enjoys his two grown sons, outdoor life on the Seacoast, and 'escaping' to Maine's north-woods, mountains, & rivers whenever time allows. His professional interests surround ocular disease management, but he primarily enjoys delivering full-scope, primary eyecare to patients of all ages.

Dr. Anthony Zieja is fond of saying that he treats people of all ages from his youngest patients who was several months old, to his oldest patient who was 103! Dr. Zieja’s caring demeanor and attention to detail are demonstrated in his day-to-day care from saving the vision of a person with a severe eye condition or giving a child their first pair of glasses. While always a New Englander, Dr. Zieja is relatively new to our community having completed his undergraduate degree at Providence College and his doctor of optometry training (O.D.) at the New England College of Optometry in Boston, MA. Dr. Zieja enjoys triathlons, endurance sports, and music.

Dr. Isabel Zieja is a graduate of Tufts University and the New England College of Optometry. Throughout her years in Optometry school, she enjoyed volunteering overseas in El Salvador providing full comprehensive eye exams. She sees eye care as a perfect career path for helping others with such an important aspect of their independence and happiness. Dr. Isabel Zieja is an avid swimmer and triathlon competitor, and enjoys traveling to Spain where she has family.
