The Young OD Focus Group was created in 2004 by Dr. Benny Shao, and is currently sponsored by the SCCOS in order to address the concerns and needs of new optometry graduates. Many graduates feel that their education has prepared them to be optometrists but not necessarily business owners.
The Young OD Focus Group's mission is to give new optometry graduates the know-how to handle the business challenges presented in different modes of optometry practice by putting them in touch with more experienced doctors & professionals during our monthly meetings.
Dinner & refreshments are always served, so come hungry! We look forward to meeting you.

March 2020 Young Optometrists Meeting
Topic: “Myths & Mysteries in Myopia Management" Speaker: Sarah Kochik, OD, PhD, FAAO Dr. Sarah Kochik is an Assistant Clinical Professor at the UC Berkeley School of Optometry. She graduated from UCBSO in 2014 and went on to pursue residency training in Pediatrics and Primary Care, also at Berkeley, where she was first exposed to myopia control under the mentorship of Dr. Maria Liu. During her residency, she became very passionate about myopia control and how treatments might be optimized for individual patients, and went on to complete a PhD researching some of these mechanisms in an animal model. Throughout her PhD training, Dr. Kochik continued to see patients in the Myopia Control Clinic at Berkeley, as well as train optometric interns and residents in myopia control techniques. When she's not at work, she enjoys spending time exploring the Bay Area with her two dogs.
