Dr. Flood grew up on a farm in rural Amish Country and is originally from Dundee, Ohio. She was the Valedictorian at Garaway High School and went undergrad to The Ohio State University. She teaches Externs from OSU College of Optometry and is an Assistant Professor of Clinical Practice for OSU, but nothing is as satisfying this special story:

My favorite patient story was when I saw the wife of a young man that I took care of since he was a little boy. This was her first visit with me. She had noticed a decrease in her vision and thought that she just needed a new eyeglass prescription. She attributed her headaches and vomiting to her pregnancy. But after examining her, I found that she had pseudo tumor cerebri, a condition where the pressure was increasing around her brain. The condition can be associated with pregnancy. I made arrangements for her to go immediately to the ER at OSU, and was able to get a neuro-ophthalmologist to handle her case. She was able to have a shunt placed in her brain to relieve the pressure that was going to blind her, and at the same time this procedure did not harm her baby. A year later, she brought in her beautiful little girl to visit me and said “Thank you so much !”

Dr. Flood is very involved in the community and enjoys helping others. She was extremely involved with Healing Art Missions, ” I started an eye clinic in Haiti that gives ongoing eyecare to a rural community of 10,000 people, for the past 18 years. They recently added an annual visit from a classmate of mine who went on to become an ophthalmologist who does cataract surgery. ” Dr. Flood also does all the eye exams/glasses for a free clinic in Licking County called Community Health Clinic.

Dr. Flood lives with her husband of 36 years, Mike. He owns a landscaping company, Albyn’s Nursery. She has a daughter Stephy, who is getting her PhD in counseling at Ohio State University. Stephy is married to Zach, a physics teacher. Dr. Flood’s son Jason is a standup comedian in L.A.

Ryan Millyard, O.D. is a member of the Ohio Optometric Association and American Optometric Association. He graduated college with dual Bachelors of Science. He received a BS in Finance/Investment Analysis and Economics from Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado and a BS in General Sciences/Organic Chemistry from the University of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon. He then received his Doctorate of Optometry from The Ohio State University – College of Optometry in Columbus, Ohio. Dr. Millyard specializes in General Optometry and Scleral Lens/Irregular Corneas.

Dr. Millyard was born and raised in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, on the western slope of the Rocky Mountains. He became an optometrist because he wanted to be able to help people, but also to get to know them on a personal level. Optometry is still a very patient-oriented health care profession and he enjoys that. Dr. Millyard shares this story:

One patient story that springs to mind was a patient who had a few small retinal bleeds and other minor symptoms, but enough to warrant further evaluation. The patient had a complete blockage of a portion of their carotid artery and began medical treatment to reduce stroke risk. Reaffirms in my mind the importance of my own annual dilated retinal exams, as well as for my patients.

Dr. Millyard lives with his fiancé who is also an optometrist and teaches and researches at The Ohio State. They have a calico cat named, Cecilia. He likes being outdoors; camping, hiking, hunting and fishing. He also loves to cook and enjoys all things fermentation based- Homebrewing, picking and sourdough baking.
