Dr. Robert Kress, OD

Optometrist
100 W Main St, STE A, Buckhannon, WV
Undergraduate Education: The Ohio State University; Bachelor of Science. Optometry School: The Ohio State University College of Optometry; 2012. Professional Achievements and Associations: Memberships; American Optometric Association, WV Optometric Association. Clinical Certifications and Specialties: No specific certified specialties but on a day-to-day basis I treat and diagnose glaucoma, macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, remove corneal foreign bodies. Fit hard and soft contact lenses. Also see children of all ages. The reason I became an optometrist is: Having a sibling that is an optometrist and 15 years older, I was introduced to the profession at an early age. I was able to see “behind the scenes” and was immediately interested in the profession. I always gravitated towards the sciences in school and as I progressed through my education, it became clearer that optometry was the perfect fit. My favorite part of helping my patients is: Giving a patient his or her first pair of glasses, especially kids. Their reaction to seeing the world clear for the first time is priceless. Also, being informed by a parent that a child’s school performance has improved because of his or her glasses is something that never gets old. In my spare time, I enjoy: Playing golf; Spending time with my wife and kids.
