A pioneer in his field, he brings many new technologies and techniques to South Texas in the areas of corneal transplantation, MIGS (minimally invasive glaucoma surgery), amniotic membrane therapy, dry eye therapy, and ocular surface restoration. He specializes in minimally invasive techniques to preserve and restore vision. Specifically, no-stitch/no-shot cataract surgery, corneal transplants without any sutures, sutureless amniotic membrane grafting, and in-office ocular surface restoration.

From 2012 until 2018, the doctor served as the Chief of Ophthalmology for the Christus Spohn Hospital System. He also earned board certification in ophthalmology by the American Board of Ophthalmology, whose mission is to serve the public by improving the quality of ophthalmic practice through a process of certification and Maintenance of Certification that fosters excellence and encourages continual learning.

Ophthalmology is a branch of medicine and surgery, which deals with the diagnosis and treatment of eye disorders. Ophthalmologists are experts in the diseases, functions, and anatomy of the eye. They may provide routine care such as vision testing, as well as prescribe and fit eyeglasses or contact lenses. However, ophthalmologists are also surgeons. They repair traumatic injuries to the eye and perform cataract, glaucoma, and corneal surgery.
With a heart to care for those in need, Dr. Majka has donated his time and expertise on numerous international mission trips. For his clinical expertise, he is the recipient of Compassionate Doctor Award – 5 Year Honoree (2020), Compassionate Doctor Recognition (2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2020), On-Time Doctor Award (2016, 2018, 2020), and Patients’ Choice Award (2016, 2017, 2018, 2020).
When not in the office, he enjoys spending time with his family, including his wife, Tressa, and children, Hartley and Max.
