Alumni Focus on Marielle Reidy (OD/MS’19)
January 1, 2025
As a graduate research fellow and vision science PhD student at The Ohio State University College of Optometry, Dr. Marielle Reidy truly enjoys the ever-changing nature of academia. Early in her PhD journey, she was particularly fond of teaching clinically, mostly in the Binocular Vision and Pediatrics Clinic. Currently, she is working on her dissertation research project, striving to better understand myopia control treatments. She says, "It is so exciting to have options for these patients, but there are still so many unanswered questions about them. And before we can answer the questions, new treatments crop up and we’ve got more questions about those! I hope I can play even a small role in maximizing these treatments for young myopes."
