Residency Description:

To provide unique advanced training as a primary eye care/geriatric optometry provider to our veteran population, in a multidisciplinary health care setting, through interaction with experienced optometric and medical providers. Considerable emphasis will be placed on geriatric optometry, especially in providing care to inpatients. Comprehensive training will be provided to the residents who will develop into a highly skilled clinician, able to diagnosis, treat, and manage ocular disease and ocular manifestations of systemic disease, markedly surpassing the level of a one-year post graduate optometrist.
