“Your courses have been a God-send and an extremely efficient way to fulfill the re-certification requirements. Much appreciated!” Pat Boyle, COMT
“I love your online courses. These are the best courses offered! I love the illustrations and the clarity of the material. Everyone...even the most experienced ophthalmic tech can learn something new. The convenience is also great! Being able to print the passing certificate at the end of testing is one of the best features you offer...no waiting on results!! I look forward to using this site again..and again for my CE credits! THANKS!!!!" E. P., COA
“I had 24 A and 12 B credits to earn in 2 weeks. Without your program, I would not have made it....Your courses are much more clear [than JCAHPO's] and student friendly to learn and retain the information given. I will definitely use them in the future." M. P., COA
“This test, as with the other test I have taken from eye-courses explains things in a clear, concise way that is easy to relay to a patient with little or no knowledge about the eye. In fact, yesterday while explaining something to a patient I used something that I learned in the eye course material." Y. R., COA (regarding Advanced Anatomy II)
“I liked the diagrams and outline format. Very easy to follow." C. S., CO
“I have previously purchased several exams from you. I have found that you have been the most detailed in your teachings. I learned more than ever before!!" Angela Hardin, COA, Florida
“This [All About Pupils] was a great review and I will be able to technically explain the pupils function and responses to the new techs just starting at our clinic." Debora Vahrenwald, COT, Portland, Oregon
“This material will make a great study guide for the COT exam. Thank you!"(Slit Lamp Exam), Dawn Burgess, COA
“Really nice program. Very informative and presented in an
easily understandable form" and "Nice presentation of Special Tests." Stephen Infantino, Clinical Research

“I work with the Neuro-Ophthalmologist in our clinic 90% of the time. After taking this course (Neuro Ophthalmology Overview) I have a better understanding of what our patient's complaints mean. I learned a great deal. I will recommend your online courses to all the ophthalmic tech's I know!" E.P., COA
“I picked easy courses so I wouldn't embarrass myself. But I am really surprised that I've learned something new from each course. Your testimonials are true. These are really great." Lynn W. Sheffield, C.O.T., Ocala, FL
I frequently find courses offered in other parts of the country that sound intriguing, but the travel costs are prohibitive. As well, many of the beginner courses are not of interest—after 18 years…. Your varied topics are a welcome change.” Katy Murphy, COA
