KINGWOOD, Texas (November 12, 2014) –Texas-based optometric alliance Vision Source announced today that its North Texas area members are joining forces with USMD, a physician-led integrated health system, to provide an enhanced level of collaborative care for USMD patients.

 “On behalf of Vision Source, we look forward to our relationship with USMD to provide patients with an optimal health care solution by delivering the highest level of vision and eye care services,” says Vision Source President and CEO, Jim Greenwood. “There is a significant need to improve population health in Texas, and this innovative collaboration ensures that we address the rising demand for preventative care and solutions for the management and treatment of chronic diseases such as diabetes.”
