The Ophthalmic Design and Dispensing (OD&D) at Middlesex Campus of Connecticut (CT) State Community College is designed for students that have solid math and problem-solving skills, love to help others and enjoy hands-on work. Students would like to work in a medical-related field, but without the time and financial commitments in getting a PhD.
