President's Message
The Michigan Society of Eye Physicians & Surgeons (MiSEPS) is the only statewide organization representing Michigan ophthalmologists and their patients. The MiSEPS's activities include legislative advocacy, interaction with third party payers about reimbursement and coverage issues, public education about important eye health care concerns, and continuing medical education for ophthalmologists and their staffs.
An Invitation To You
As you visit the MiSEPS web site, we invite you to learn more about the special training and expertise of an ophthalmologist in the delivery of medical and surgical eye care. The comprehensive ophthalmologist is truly the most highly trained provider of routine eye examinations and all refractive services, including eyeglasses and contact lenses and corrective corneal surgery, as well as medical or surgical care for eye disease. Vision is precious to all of us, and Michigan's ophthalmologists are dedicated to providing the best possible care for this most valuable sense.
Primary Purpose
The primary purpose of the MiSEPS is to promote the delivery of quality eye care in Michigan. This mission is undertaken by the MiSEPS in the dynamic environment created by legislative action, allied health professionals, managed care effects on the delivery of eye care, and the changing therapies for the treatment of medical and surgical eye disease. We are privileged to live at a time when most potentially blinding eye disease can be controlled with proper and prompt diagnosis and treatment. The MiSEPS is dedicated to bring these benefits to the citizens of Michigan.
