SUNY College of Optometry Viewbook

“Optometry is highly technical, but there’s also the altruistic aspect of helping people see. It’s the best of both worlds.”

Rima Bakhru SECOND-YEAR OD STUDENT

Optometry is such a versatile career choice. For one thing, my mind will stay sharp because I’ll be solving scientific problems, but on the other hand, I’ll be helping people who might not see as well as others. At the College, I’m getting excellent career preparation with my integrative seminar; it pools scienti c understanding with clinical decision making, professional ethics and everyday concerns like billing and coding.
