Ophthalmic Assistant Program
The Ophthalmic Assistant program prepares the student to become part of the eye-care team, assisting doctors who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the eye (Ophthalmologists). The program is a preparatory course designed to follow the guidelines of the Commission on Accreditation of Ophthalmic Medical Programs (COA-OMP) and the International Joint Commission on Allied Health Personnel in Ophthalmology (IJCAHPO). The application process for accreditation by COA-OMP will continue during the first year of the program.
