Robert Vanderyajt, OD ‘83

Alumni from all our programs recently provided memories from their time as students here on campus. Below is one excerpt from the collection. 

Robert Vanderyajt headshot1I chose the Pennsylvania College of Optometry (PCO) because I wanted to have a great educational and patient care experience in Philadelphia. I chose to specialize in low vision because I wanted to do more to help people than just giving them a pair of eyeglasses.  

During my time at PCO, I met a lot of people and felt I was able to become the best I could be in my profession. I would advise students looking to attend PCO to be aware that it will be a lot of hard work, not only in school but also with continuing education and keeping up with the rapidly progressing profession.
