Tell me more about Bennett & Bloom Eye Centers.

Bennett & Bloom Eye Centers is a secondary and tertiary referral center providing solely medical and surgical eye care services. We have two vitreo-retinal surgeons, two anterior segment surgeons and two residency trained consultative optometrists.

What type of patient contact can I expect?

The resident will spend time with all three of the above services, have direct patient contact with, and be partly responsible for, the care of patients in a variety of circumstances including: emergency eye care, peri-operative cataract and refractive surgery care, anterior segment diseases, retinal diseases, glaucoma, and surgical settings. The resident can expect to learn both routine management of patients plus diagnosis and management of complications. Involvement with patient care will be initially based on experience building to independent patient management.

What type of diagnostic equipment will I come into contact with?

Bennett & Bloom Eye Centers has state-of-the-art equipment including OCT, GDx, A- and B-Scan Ultrasonography, fundus photography/fluorescein angiography, Orbscan, IOL Master, Humphrey Field Analyzers, Bausch & Lomb Technolas 217-z excimer laser, VISX S4 excimer laser and SLT, Argon, Diode, YAG and other lasers. The resident can expect to learn the indications for the use or/and interpretation of the above.

Are research opportunities available?

The resident will have opportunities to become involved with on-site clinical research projects and will attend case conferences with interns and attendings.

Do you offer placement assistance?

Upon completion of the program we offer assistance to the resident in seeking placement, as the resident will be qualified for all career opportunities in disease management requiring residency training.
