Salus University

The mission of the Pennsylvania College of Optometry is to educate health care professionals and educators, conduct research and provide patient care and rehabilitative services that advance the welfare of the public worldwide.

Optometry is one of the fastest growing and top income-earning professions in the country today and the need for professional vision care services increases daily. Salus University’s four-year Doctor of Optometry (O.D.) program prepares graduates to become primary healthcare providers who examine, diagnose, treat, and manage vision-related diseases and disorders.

We offer a primary care philosophy and holistic approach that is patient-centered, so our students appreciate the need to not only care for the patient, but also about the patient. Small-group and problem-based learning are emphasized, as are clinical skills and hands-on experience.

Through classroom and laboratory learning, extensive clinical experience and externships, the University ensures graduates are current in their techniques, skilled in today’s technologies, and prepared to keep pace with this ever-evolving and exciting profession.
