The mission of the Orlando VAMC Optometry Residency program is to provide didactic and clinical training that will enable the resident to develop their skills in primary eye care, while diagnosing and managing patients with a wide variety of ocular and systemic diseases.  High quality eye care will be provided to all patients while adhering to residency supervision guidelines.  The program will provide the learning resources for the resident to expand upon their didactic knowledge base and apply this knowledge to patient care.
