She invites Laura May, CO, an orthoptist at the University of Minnesota, and Kim Merrill, CO, an orthoptic fellowship director at the University of Minnesota, to share their experiences in the field. They describe a typical day as an orthoptist and how they help eye care physicians treat patients. They also outline the benefits and advantages of adding an orthoptist to a pediatric ophthalmology practice.
