Day Muscelli, O.D. 

Associate Optometrist 

Dr. Day Muscelli is an experienced optometrist who enjoys helping patients achieve comfortable vision and maintain healthy eyes. She takes time to educate patients about their eye health, explain findings clearly, and provide recommendations that support their needs and quality of life. 

With more than 25 years in vision care, Dr. Muscelli provides comprehensive eye care, diabetic eye monitoring, ocular disease management, post-operative vision co-management, and contact lens care. She remains engaged with new developments in eye care and values the opportunity to evaluate each patient’s eyes with care and attention. 

Dr. Muscelli’s interest in optometry began after receiving contact lenses at age 11. She grew up in Tennessee and earned bachelor’s degrees in chemistry and biology from Austin Peay State University. She then earned her Doctor of Optometry degree from Southern College of Optometry in Memphis, Tennessee. 

After optometry school, Dr. Muscelli completed a residency at the Wilmington VA Medical Center with an emphasis on ocular disease. She has made Delaware her home ever since, providing eye care for patients throughout the area over the course of her career. 

At Karen Optical, Dr. Muscelli works alongside Dr. Daniel J. Baruffi to provide the unhurried, doctor-led care patients deserve. She enjoys getting to know patients and helping them make informed decisions about their vision and eye health. 

Outside the office, Dr. Muscelli enjoys attending and watching sporting events — especially when her boys are playing — traveling, and knitting.
