Monica Verma, M.D.
PEDIATRIC OPHTHALMOLOGY
Growing up in central Arkansas, Dr. Monica Verma has always had a desire to care for Arkansans in a meaningful way.
In 2013, she returned home to Arkansas because she saw a lack of resources in the state for pediatric ophthalmic care. After working in a group setting, Verma decided to fulfill her dream of having her own practice. She was inspired by her parents who demonstrated that hard work, compassion and motivation will always help you succeed. She attributes this to making her dream of opening her own practice come true.
In 2021, Verma opened Children’s Eye Care and Surgery of Arkansas and Little Eyes Optical. She is proud to serve the Little Rock community and has the only pediatric-focused optical practice in Arkansas. After a rewarding day at work, Verma can be found spending time with her husband Dr. Sanjay Maraboyina and their two young children. She enjoys shopping and baking with her 9-year-old daughter Aleena and playing, reading books and eating ice cream with her 3-year-old son Ayden.
