Full-circle moments like this never get old!

Dr. Altman was honored to be invited to speak to the Private Practice Club at the University of Alabama at Birmingham earlier this month — his alma mater and the place where his journey into optometry began.

Having the opportunity to return, stand in front of future doctors once sitting in the very same seats, and reconnect with the professors who helped shape his career is truly special.

From student to private practice owner, moments like these remind us why mentorship, education, and giving back matter so much.

Such an honor getting invited back to speak to my alma mater! Go Blazers!
-Dr. Turner Altman

The Private Practice Club recently hosted alumnus Dr. Turner Altman, owner of Altman Eye Center, and his wife, Victoria, for an engaging discussion on the realities of running an optometric practice. Students gained insights into business strategies, patient care, and the challenges and rewards of private practice. The club regularly invites alumni speakers to share real-world perspectives, helping students prepare for successful careers in private practice.

We’re incredibly proud to share that Dr. Altman has been named one of Vision Source® OD’s “26 Members to Watch in 2026.” 👏

This national recognition highlights doctors who are redefining independent optometry through their commitment to patients, practice, and the profession.

🗨️ Dr. Altman shares:

“There are two things I find incredibly fulfilling: fixing a patient’s problem and helping other doctors do the same. When we learn from each other, it means better care for countless more patients.”

"There are two things I find incredibly fulfilling: fixing a patient's problem and helping
other doctors do the same. If I can inspire one colleague with advice or an idea, that means better care for countless more patients."

We’re honored to see Altman Eye Center recognized on a national stage. 👓✨

Dr. Altman in NYC trying out the new Rayban meta displays. Altman Eye Center will likely be one of only five private practices in the entire country to help launch the NEW Ray-Ban Meta Displays later this year! After demoing them inside the Meta Lab, he said the tech and AI capabilities are absolutely mind-blowing. 🤯

We’re so proud to bring world-changing innovation right here to EKY — and we can’t wait for you to experience it firsthand. 👓🚀
