UNC Department of Ophthalmology is excited to share our Winter 2024 issue of UNC EYE. This patient care-themed issue contains multiple features that highlight UNC Ophthalmology’s service to citizens statewide and beyond as the State of North Carolina’s designated provider of quality eye care. In this issue, learn more about the role of comprehensive eye care in detecting and treating eye disease, community health partnerships in glaucoma outreach, and UNC’s no-cost, medical student-led eye care clinic for the underserved. Each issue of UNC EYE highlights UNC Ophthalmology’s excellence in patient care, education, research and other areas and that demonstrate our strength as a leading department of academic ophthalmology.
