The eye is a unique part of the body, but it's also one that can be difficult for patients to fully understand. It's important to help your patients understand their optical health and surgical or treatment options. In an effort to facilitate educating your patients, we're happy to provide you with several patient education series which you can download and use at your discretion.

The National Eye Institute has gratiously provided the patient education materials below. For more information on NEI, please visit www.nei.nih.gov.
