Dr. Brian Blount is a 1980 graduate of the University of Houston College of Optometry. He was born and raised in Gulfport, Mississippi, but he has been a Texan since graduating from the University of Houston. He is a past President of the Texas Optometric Association, and he is still active with the TOA Board of Directors. He is also a member of the American Optometric Association and a diplomate in the American Board of Optometry. Dr. Blount currently sits on the Texas State Optical Board of Directors.
Dr. Blount is a family practice optometrist who is licensed to practice therapeutic and glaucoma specialties. He has been practicing in the Beaumont area since 1981, and he has been loved by generations of his patients. While he may be best remembered for his sense of humor and his fun-filled nature, he has practiced optometry in the most technologically advanced manner possible since receiving his license in 1981. His wonderful chair-side manner is equally matched by his clinical skills.
Dr. Blount and his wife, Rose, have two grown children and two grandchildren. He is an avid audiophile; in his spare time, he enjoys playing keyboards and listening to music on his one of a kind sound system. When not traveling on the optometric lecture circuit, Dr. Blount also water skis, snow skis, and scuba dives.
