Dr. Ross and Andrew Ferretti PA-C educate local optometrists

As one of Lehigh Valley's most established comprehensive ophthalmic eye care facilities, the doctors at the Lehigh Valley Center for Sight always strive to improve eye care in the Valley. One method is to offer continuing educational courses for local optometrists.  This is an excellent way for all primary eye care doctors to not only keep current with ophthalmic medical information but also provides a way for us to share the latest breakthroughs in cataract surgery, laser vision correction techniques, glaucoma and retinal conditions, as well as treating other eye conditions.

Attending optometrists can learn how to interpret various eye conditions, see actual case studies, receive updates on managing difficult glaucoma and retinal cases. The Lehigh Valley Center for Sight is proud to play an important role in the continuing education of our eye care professionals in the Lehigh Valley. Our goal is to ensure that our patients and local residents are receiving the highest quality eye care available.

Most recently, Dr. Daniel Ross and Andrew Ferretti PA-C presented our local optometrists with an educational program at the Best Western of Lehigh Valley on June 21st. More than 50 local optometrists attended the lecture and had the opportunity to meet and discuss individual cases with our specialists.
