The primary goal of the Residency in Primary Care Optometry, with Emphasis in Family Practice Optometry and Ocular Disease at The Eye Center at Southern College of Optometry is to prepare the successful resident to provide the highest caliber of care and be qualified to serve the profession as a leader in patient care and education. The opportunities to develop advanced clinical abilities through an intensive academic and clinical curriculum unique to a campus-based program are highlighted in this 1 year post-doctorate program.
Situated at the corner of three states on the banks of the Mississippi River, Memphis features a wide demographical cross-section that enables the clinical program to deliver direct patient care to a diverse patient population.
