Cassondra Dyckman

I preform comprehensive patient work ups as well as advanced diagnostic testing including OTC, visual fields, fundus photography, pachymetry, IOL master, and corneal topography. I used to assist ophthalmologists with in-office procedures such as intravitreal injections, laser treatments, and minor surgeries. I administer ophthalmic drops for IOP (tonopen and goldman), schirmers, and dilation. I accurately document findings, test results, and medical history in electronic health records. I have collaborated with both optometrists and ophthalmologists in high volume, multi-specialty setting, ensuring efficient patient flow and quality care.
