  • Letter from the President
    TABLE OF CONTENTS LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT On September 24, 2008, the State University of New York College of Optometry adopted our five-year strategic plan, A Shared Vision. As we now enter the final year of the plan, it is appropriate to reflect on the past four years, assess the impact of our efforts and begin development of our vision for the years ahead. As a result, this Annual Report highlights the major impact that our efforts have had on the students, faculty and patients who make up our College community. We look not only upon the past year, but examine the past five years to highlight trends, challenges and, most critically, our progress toward achieving our goals. You will see that much has changed over the past five years. In spite of national and statewide economic and social tumult, the College has made meaningful progress, embracing educational reform, expanding eye care services to the people of New York and strengthening our 4 intellectual impact through expanded basic science and clinical TIMELINE research programs. 10 We have invested in our students and our community. Major renovations EDUCATION have been completed or are underway, and we have focused on enhancing the students’ experience while at the College and their success after graduation through the establishment of the Career Development Center. 18 PATIENT CARE Our students are among the most outstanding in the country, and their success remains evident with what may be the strongest performance nationally on the National Board Examinations. 24 RESEARCH A Shared Vision represents an ambitious and highly successful period for the College.

Dr. Robert Furchgott’s nobel Prize-winning discovery of nitric oxide’s role in the body is the basis for fi nding new ways to treat heart disease, dementia, cancer, lung disease, infl ammatory joint disease, and other medical problems that affect, literally, hundreds of millions of people worldwide. today, sUnY Downstate basic scientists, behavioral scientists, clinicians, and public health experts are expanding our knowledge of a broad range of healthcare topics. In this issue, you can read about bench research being conducted to under- stand how brain cells communicate; fi nd ways to boost HDL, or “good,” cholesterol; create a mouse model to study the effects of maternal crack bingeing on babies; and elucidate the genetic mechanism by which sleep disturbances increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.

This approach has permitted us to keep faculty fully occupied and challenged while extending the benefits of their special abilities to patients at several institutions. Additionally, we have purchased advanced diagnostic technologies in all subspecialty areas, allowing for the management of complex disease. In 2010, we added additional faculty in Retina and Oculoplastics who will work at both Downstate in Chairman’s the faculty practice, and at Kings County Hospital Center with residents. Our faculty, plus our improved facilities and expanded clinical offerings, have, indeed, dramatically increased demand for ophthalmology services. At our largest clinical affiliate, Kings County Hospital, outpatient visits Message have increased significantly year after year over the last decade, and leadership has provided a wonderful opportunity for growth of our service in both the clinic and the operating room. We relocated to a modern 9,500 square feet Eye Clinic in Kings County in 2006 due to continued growth of the service, which now provides EMR, networked digital image analysis at the work station, simulated cataract training, and a minor procedure room in this state-of-the-art facility. We have similarly expanded the faculty practice facility at Downstate, known as The Midwood Eye Center, located conveniently on Nostrand Avenue near the junction of Flatbush Avenue. This impressive facility boasts 16 exam rooms in addition to multiple other diagnostic and treatment areas.
