Maine, like many communities in the U.S., lacks adequate access to eye care, exacerbated by a growing shortage of ophthalmologists. Recent research finds allowing U.S. optometrists to perform more advanced tasks increases access to vital eye care services among Medicare enrollees.

Study highlights include -

• In roughly the past three decades, the per capita number of ophthalmologists has declined by 9.8 percent while the per capita number of optometrists has grown 45.7 percent.

• In states that have expanded scope of practice, optometrists have performed nearly 150,000 YAG surgeries, with only two examples of negative outcomes or complications.

We are saddened to share that Mountain View EyeCare has recently lost our longtime handyman and friend, “Handy Joe” Gorham.

Joe dedicated many years to helping keep our office neat, tidy, and running smoothly. Whether it was fixing something that broke, lending a helping hand, or simply stopping in with a friendly smile, Joe was always someone we could count on. His hard work and commitment behind the scenes helped make Mountain View EyeCare the welcoming place it is today.

Joe will be greatly missed by our team, and we are incredibly grateful for the years he spent taking care of our office. Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time. ❤️
