Dr. Carey Jane (C.J.) Murzynski

Dr. Murzynski is a proud Hamburg, NY native with a passion for primary eye care for all ages, including pediatrics. During her time at SUNY College of Optometry, Dr. Murzynski was a member of the American Optometric Student Association and served as the President of the school’s student chapter of the New York State Optometric Association.
