📚 Today on World Literacy Day, we’re reminded that the ability to read—and to learn—depends on the ability to see.

Healthy vision is essential for focusing, comprehending, and fully engaging with the written word. We’re dedicated to providing advanced medical and surgical eye care to protect and restore sight, ensuring patients can continue to experience the joy of reading at every stage of life. 👁️❤️

Let’s celebrate literacy by safeguarding the vision that makes it possible.

Meet Chris, this week's staff highlight!
This week, we shine the spotlight on Christena B., our talented Surgery Scheduler and the organizational whiz behind Dr. Cheung’s charts. 👩‍🎓
Chris joined VEC in February 2024, bringing with her a wealth of scheduling experience from her previous role at Urology of Virginia. Since her first day, she’s impressed us all with her dedication, attention to detail, and the pride she takes in her work. If something needs to get done, you can always count on Chris!
Outside of the office, Chris has a vibrant life. She’s a proud “boy mom” to her 13-year-old son, Jude—yes, named after that famous Beatles song. Raised on a farm and no stranger to hard work, Chris has a lifelong love of horses and finds joy in all things equestrian. 🐎🤠
If you spot Chris first thing in the morning, you’ll notice her ever-ready cup of Starbucks—coffee is her fuel of choice! She also loves music (no surprise there) and has a knack for murder mystery games, always ready to solve a case or crack a clue. ☕☕
We’re grateful to have Chris as part of the VEC family. Thank you, Chris, for all that you do! 🙏

Meet Camryn M., our featured staff member!

Camryn joined our team in 2024, bringing with her a wealth of experience as an ophthalmic scribe. Her background made her an immediate asset and an outstanding contributor from day one.

Camryn is currently wrapping up her master’s in healthcare administration—a testament to her dedication to both learning and leadership in the field.

On top of her professional accomplishments, she recently celebrated a huge personal milestone: getting married! Congratulations, Camryn! 🎉

A fun fact about Camryn is that she is also a twin, adding a unique and special dynamic to her life.

Known for being exceptionally bright, strong, and brave, Camryn regularly rises to the challenge of scribing with our TOP DOC, Dr. Sheppard — sometimes even solo!

Her positive attitude and willingness to support her colleagues make her a true team player. Add her lovely Southern Belle charm, and Camryn brings warmth and positivity to every shift.

One thing fun about Camryn: she always has her nails done, showing just a bit of her fun personality through her creative styles!

Thank you, Camryn, for everything you do. We’re so glad to have you on our team!
