Biography
Highly Trained. Patient-Focused.
Dr. Nikitha Reddy is a board-certified, highly trained ophthalmologist who brings world-class expertise and genuine compassion to every patient she treats at Soni Vision Institute. Her advanced training from two of the country’s most prestigious programs gives her a rare combination of surgical precision and clinical depth.
Dr. Reddy earned her medical degree and completed her ophthalmology residency at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas — consistently ranked among the top ophthalmology programs in the nation. She then pursued a highly competitive Glaucoma, Anterior Segment, and Advanced Surgery (GAASS) fellowship at the University of Toronto under the mentorship of Dr. Ike Ahmed, one of the most renowned glaucoma and anterior segment surgeons in the world.
This combination of elite residency and fellowship training allows Dr. Reddy to offer her patients a uniquely comprehensive approach. Whether performing complex cataract surgery with advanced technology lenses, treating glaucoma with the latest minimally invasive techniques, or helping patients achieve visual freedom through refractive procedures, she brings the same meticulous attention to detail and personal care to every case.
Dr. Reddy has been practicing in Houston for several years and has quickly become one of the most trusted eye surgeons in the greater Houston area. Her patients consistently describe her as warm, thorough, and exceptionally skilled — someone who makes them feel at ease while delivering outstanding surgical results.
I am floored with the novelty of being able to see without glasses. Dr. Reddy and the entire staff are amazing, reassuring and ever so accommodating. Kudos to Soni Vision!

Dr. Reddy did a cataract surgery on my left eye and it went very smooth, no pain at all. The best part is that I can see without glasses the very next morning after years of wearing them.
Philosophy
Every Patient Deserves to Feel Heard
“What matters most to me is that every patient feels heard, cared for, and confident in their treatment. I became a surgeon because I care deeply about people — and I believe that the best surgical outcomes begin with a relationship built on trust and understanding.”
Dr. Reddy is known for her warm, approachable demeanor and her ability to explain complex medical concepts in a way that puts patients at ease. She takes the time to understand not just each patient’s clinical needs, but their lifestyle, concerns, and personal vision goals — because she believes that great medicine is as much about listening as it is about operating.
I seldom write reviews for medical care. However the professionalism, after surgery care and follow up was so exceptional from Dr. Reddy and her staff I had to express my gratitude. Dr. Reddy is an excellent surgeon and my vision went from very poor to 20/20.
