The video promotes the Doctor of Optometry degree
and the optometric profession. It shows students, professors and Doctors
of Optometry talking about what students learn and what they can expect
from the profession once they graduate, as
well as demonstrates the caring aspects of the profession and the more
high tech aspects of optometry.
“The video reinforces what many optometrists
already know,” says Dr. Jennifer Smythe, ASCO President and Dean of the
Pacific University College of Optometry. “Doctors of optometry have
unlimited career opportunities, great success at achieving
work/life balance and are primary health care providers that make a
real difference. We also have the privilege of having a positive impact
on the ability of an individual to succeed and be happy in live by
improving vision and eye health.”
