Welcome
University Eye Center is the patient care facility of the State University of New York College of Optometry. Our internationally-recognized faculty of optometrists, ophthalmologists and ophthalmic dispensers have provided extraordinary eye care for the people of New York for more than 30 years.
Because this is a teaching facility, our patients benefit from the careful oversight of supervising doctors with many years of patient care, teaching and research experience. Every patient receives a comprehensive examination that includes a thorough medical history, measurement of visual acuity and assessment of eye health. If necessary, patients may obtain glasses or contact lenses, or have laser eye surgery performed on site.
The UEC is one of the largest outpatient vision care facilities of its kind in the nation, with more than 75,000 patient visits annually.
UEC also provides a wide range of services not typically found at most eye care centers, from pediatric eye exams and learning disabilities assessments to the latest treatments for ocular diseases.
