课程简介
Doctors of optometry offer services including the medical treatment of eye diseases such as glaucoma, management of the ocular consequences of diabetes, refractive care for myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia with contact lenses and eyeglasses, and rehabilitation for visual disorders caused by brain injury or developmental disorders. Optometrists are valued members of the health care team who own private practices throughout the United States and Canada and also work in interdisciplinary settings such as hospitals, veterans' health facilities, community health centers, and military bases. The curriculum at the Michigan College of Optometry at Ferris State University is designed to produce doctors of optometry who are qualified to practice full-scope optometric care in any state and practice setting. This includes classroom, laboratory, and clinical training under the supervision of an outstanding, nationally recognized faculty. The college, which is a member institution of the Association of Schools and Colleges of Optometry and is accredited by the Accreditation Council on Optometric Education and the Higher Learning Commission, offers its four-year, doctoral level professional education program in an outstanding, modern facility that includes an on-campus clinic. Off-campus facilities also are used to maximize clinical education.
