The SUNY College of Optometry offers students an outstanding optometric education and clinical experience in one of the most vibrant cities in the world. Our Doctor of Optometry (OD) program, as well as our MS and PhD programs in Vision Science, are taught by outstanding faculty at our state-of-the-art campus in Midtown Manhattan. The University Eye Center, our on-campus patient-care facility in Manhattan, sees over 70,000 patient visits a year in multiple clinical services, including primary care, infant and pediatric care, vision rehabilitation, ocular disease and imaging, specialty contact lenses, traumatic brain injury and more.
In the near future, we plan to offer the OD degree program in Upstate New York expanding access to our top-program and to address the growing need of vision care access in the region.
