SCO's Residency Programs give graduate optometrists additional opportunities to expand their clinical knowledge and skills.

The residency programs that we offer include:

• Ocular Disease
• Family Practice Optometry
• Pediatric Optometry
• Low Vision
• Primary Eye Care

See a complete list of programs and their descriptions.

There is currently one residency position in each of the College's programs except for the program at the Memphis VA Hospital, which has six positions, and the program at the Salisbury, NC VA Hospital, which has four positions.

Residencies are one calendar year in length and begin on July 1.

Residents receive an annual stipend, health insurance at group rates, professional liability insurance, and travel funding.

All of our programs are either accredited by the Accreditation Council on Optometric Education or being prepared for accreditation.
