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. Beginning in 2026, we will also offer an upstate program in Syracuse, expanding access to our rigorous optometric education and helping to address the growing need for vision care across the region.
