A Culture of Innovation and Doctor Leadership

EyeCare Partners Innovation Center and Medical Executive Board
At EyeCare Partners, we want to ignite a culture of innovative eye care and continuous learning in order to improve the future of vision care. We are committed to building a culture of doctor leadership and innovation through the EyeCare Partners Innovation Center and Medical Executive Board. In our model of clinically integrated care, dedicated team members of every ophthalmic and optometric subspecialty work together to improve patient outcomes.
EyeCare Partners Innovation Center
With more than 1,000 eye care providers across the country, we have an unmatched wealth of data and expertise to draw upon. EyeCare Partners Innovation Center allows us to put that data to work and leverage our collective expertise to improve patient outcomes, enhance patient care, and drive sight-saving advances in research. At EyeCare Partners, we’re creating a new paradigm in eye care that will enable us to identify, study, and drive progressive, preventative, and predictive care across the country through innovative eye care initiatives.
Medical Executive Board
Doctor Leadership
The Medical Executive Board is unique in the vision care industry. The doctors on the Medical Executive Board provide guidance to Senior Management and the EyeCare Partners Corporate Board and also serve as advocates in governmental bodies and professional societies. The Medical Executive Board establishes best practices to ensure that our patients receive the highest quality of medical care. They also define and support the careers of ODs, MDs, and staff at our partner practices and empower internal leadership, productivity, ongoing education, efficiency, and research.
