Celina excelled academically and graduated in the top ten in her senior class from Sylvan Hills High School in Sherwood, Arkansas in 2002. Before graduating, Celina had already decided on a career path - optometry. She attended Arkansas State University in Jonesboro, graduating with honors in 2006 with a B.S. in Biological Sciences, and headed to start her optometric education at Northeastern State University Oklahoma College of Optometry in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. Clinical experience was of utmost importance at NSUOCO, and Celina loved interacting with patients and helping determine their eye care needs.
She graduated with honors from NSUOCO in 2010, and began practicing in her home state of Arkansas with a group optometric practice providing comprehensive eye care. In 2013, Celina took a position as the Clinical Director of TLC Laser Eye Centers - Little Rock, where she worked aiding patients like herself through the considerations of LASIK or PRK vision correction surgeries. Dr. Watson is well known throughout the optometric community for her comprehensive knowledge and personal patient care. Dr. Watson would love to have you as a patient as she fulfills a life long dream of having an optometric practice that aims to give back to a community she has been a proud part of her whole life. When she’s not being “Dr. W” in the clinic, she is “Momma” to her three sons, Kruz, Kase, and Kyen that she shares with the love of life, Kristopher.
