Words of Wisdom to the Class of 2020 from Your Alumni Community

Open your eyes and heart and follow your passion. Optometry offers such incredible vistas of pursuit, so many fulfilling niches, if a topic intrigues you, pursue it! SUNY grads have a special strength and power! Use it!! My love for contact lens practice and research led me to Australia, where I spent 10 years teaching and studying, and then I taught my passion in 17 more countries. My life took an amazing path around the world due to my vision: to love what I do and do what I loved. Optometry will open the world to you: think big, see bigger, Live the 20/20 Vision!
