Vermont Ophthalmological Society

Protect Your Eyes and Keep Eye Surgery Safe!

In Vermont, with something as precious as eyesight, we can not take unnecessary risks.

Our eyes are one of the most sensitive and precious organs in our body. That is why certified ophthalmology physicians go through extensive medical education and surgery training, because when it comes to your eyesight, the consequences of bad care are potentially life altering. The Vermont Ophthalmological Society is committed to protecting Vermonters and ensuring that Vermonters receive excellent care provided by experienced and highly trained physicians.
