SUNY College of Optometry Viewbook

“It’s important for optometrists to be global citizens who provide care to those who don’t have access to it.”

I recently completed a mission trip to Rwanda, and I am planning another trip to Uganda. These trips allow my colleagues and I to bring vision and eye care to those who are not as fortunate to have regular access to it. The College provides ample opportunity for students and faculty to make these trips, which are so important to get perspective on the patients we see day to day here at home. In addition, the trips are excellent networking opportunities for students to meet established optometrists.
