My name is Jayden Jones and I was the recipient of the 2021 Brookside Optometric Group Scholarship.

My name is Elyse Glover, and I was the 2020 Brookside Optometric Scholarship winner. This scholarship really changed my life and has helped me better prepare for college. I aspire to become an OBYN and come back to my community and give back to our community to provide service. I was given this opportunity being a winner of this scholarship. Brookside Optometric Group believed in my abilities, and I will forever be grateful for the opportunity and how this scholarship has helped me with some of my college cost and expenses.

In this episode of Eye Talk, Dr. Rosemary Melrose explains which eye symptoms warrant an emergency visit to your optometrist, and which aren't quite as urgent.

Plus, Dr. Rick Vanover explores how the technology from COVID-19 vaccines may help with treatments for eye conditions, and Dr. Bob Melrose introduces our 2021 Scholarship Program!

Congratulations to the winner of our 2020 Scholarship Contest, Elyse Glover! Elyse is graduating from Lincoln High School, and will be attending Sacramento State University in the fall, majoring in Biology. Elyse plans to become an OB/GYN and return to Stockton to practice after completing her education.
