Clay-Rhynes Residency in Ocular Disease
Program Description
The Clay-Rhynes/RGB Ocular Disease Resident will be exposed to a wide variety of ocular
and systemic conditions, having daily access to cutting edge instrumentation including
Cirrus OCT, Optomap, specular microscopy, VEP, ERG, ORA, anterior segment imaging,
wavefront aberrometry, TearLab, Macuscope, AdaptDX, and B scan. The resident will
spend approximately half time with Clay-Rhynes Eye Clinic and half time with RGB Eye
Associates.
The Clay-Rhynes Eye Clinic is a high volume medical/surgical practice in our 8000 square foot state-of-the-art clinic, where the resident will perform YAG capsulotomies, iridotomies, and vitreolysis, along with radiosurgical lesion removals, and foreign body removals. The resident will attend all surgeries and perform all post-op care for every patient the resident refers for cataract and LASIK procedures. The resident will have the opportunity to observe and manage a large volume of glaucoma, cataract, and macular degeneration patients. Yet, because of our demographics, the resident will also manage a large number of pediatric patients.
The resident's time at RGB Eye Associates will see them involved in activities that they have fewer opportunities to be exposed to at Clay-Rhynes Eye Clinic. These would include, but not be limited to: pre-op work-ups on cataract, lid, and corneal surgeries, observing/attending surgeries (surgery center and in-office), and heavier exposure to ocular disease with many coming on referral from other optometrists, as opposed to seeing on first exposure at Clay-Rhynes. RGB Eye Associates has offices in both Oklahoma and Texas. A Texas optometry license is therefore required in addition to an Oklahoma optometry license as the resident will see patients at their Texas clinic at some times.
Our surgeons utilize the latest technologies including the Catalys femtosecond laser for capsulorhexis and cataract fragmentation. All LASIK is also performed using femtosecond flap technology. As well, our ophthalmology partners administer anti-VEGF injections for our AMD patients in our clinic. The resident will participate in observation and management with these surgeons. Finally, the resident will benefit from our relationships developed over the last quarter century with some of the best and brightest sub-specialists in retina, cornea, and glaucoma.
Perhaps the most unique aspect of our residency is the opportunity for the resident to observe and participate in the management of a practice. In addition to weekly grand rounds and journal club, the resident will participate in daily morning huddles with all doctors and staff, as well as weekly staff meetings and weekly administrative staff meetings.
The resident will also spend time at NSU Oklahoma College of Optometry and the Cherokee Nation W.W. Hastings Hospital in Tahlequah one week during the Fall semester and one week during the Spring semester.
Teaching is another important aspect of this program, with opportunities to become involved in didactic and clinical education of optometry students, optometrists, and other healthcare providers.
At the beginning of the year, you are assigned which holidays you will be on call. If you are not scheduled to be on call, you are not expected to be at work on these holidays and they are not taken from your vacation.
