Your faculty selected you because of your demonstrated excellence, aptitude, and interest in low vision care—qualities that distinguish you as someone with exceptional potential in one of optometry's most rewarding specialties.
In recognition of this achievement, the Shuldiner Low Vision Training Institute is pleased to extend a scholarship opportunity toward advanced clinical training in low vision rehabilitation.
Graduating from optometry school is only the beginning of discovering where you can make your greatest professional impact.
Low vision rehabilitation is one of the most meaningful—and least understood—areas of clinical practice. It combines advanced clinical problem-solving with the opportunity to restore independence and improve quality of life for patients whose vision cannot be corrected through conventional care.
For many doctors, it becomes not only one of the most professionally fulfilling aspects of practice, but also a distinctive specialty that sets them apart within their community.
The Shuldiner Low Vision Training Institute provides intensive clinical training through the Richard Shuldiner, OD / William Feinbloom, OD Philosophy and Methods for Providing Low Vision Care™.
Doctors completing this training develop the clinical confidence and business framework to incorporate low vision as a specialty within an existing practice or to develop a dedicated low vision practice serving their community.
Graduates become part of a collaborative network of doctors committed to advancing excellence in low vision rehabilitation while continuing to receive ongoing clinical and practice-development support.
As a recipient of the William Feinbloom Award, you have been selected to receive:
This scholarship is offered exclusively to recipients of the William Feinbloom Award and reflects our commitment to encouraging the continued development of future leaders in low vision rehabilitation.
To help each doctor establish strong referral relationships and long-term success, the Shuldiner Low Vision Training Institute supports a limited number of doctors within defined geographic territories.
Because of this, training opportunities vary by location.
During an introductory conversation, we'll discuss your professional interests, career goals, and whether opportunities currently exist within your area.
The William Feinbloom Award recognizes promise.
This scholarship was created to encourage that promise to continue developing.
Whether your future includes incorporating low vision into your existing practice or building an entire practice devoted to vision rehabilitation, we hope you'll take a few minutes to explore what may be possible.
Whether you're ready to explore advanced low vision training now or simply want to stay connected as your career develops, we'd be delighted to hear from you.
