RANCHO CORDOVA, Calif.—VSP Vision Care recently kicked off “Ask the Eye Doctor,” a new feature the company is sponsoring on the American Diabetes Association Web site.

Ask the Eye Doctor, which can be accessed at www.askavspdoctor.com, highlights 10 most-frequently asked questions relating to eye health and diabetes, rotating regularly as users participate and ask additional questions. Offering answers to those questions is VSP provider Roger Phelps, OD, of Ojai, Calif., who is a certified diabetes educator living with type 1 diabetes.

VSP, a national strategic partner of the ADA, is working to help educate Americans about the importance of regular eyecare while managing diabetes. Ask the Eye Doctor is the first feature on the ADA’s new Ask the Expert page; future topics in the series will include Ask the Pharmacist, Ask the Nutritionist and Ask the Dentist.
