Residency Description:

The residency in Primary Eye Care seeks to attract the best-qualified graduates and to provide them with advanced didactic and clinical education in clinical optometry. Exposure to non-optometric clinical patient care through multidisciplinary contacts is an important component of the program, allowing a well- rounded view of the optometrist's role as a health care gatekeeper. The program is designed to foster a life-long commitment to learning. Graduates of this residency program are trained to be able to deliver superlative clinical care in primary care optometry, to serve as optometric educators, and to serve the profession of optometry as leaders in the community and within the health care delivery system.
