CooperVision has announced the 2024-2025 members of its Student Contact Lens Leadership Society and Student Myopia Leadership Society.
These students, who represent schools and colleges of optometry across the U.S. and Canada, are provided opportunities to advance their education throughout the year. These opportunities include an educational meeting at CooperVision’s facilities in Rochester, NY, a grant to attend the American Academy of Optometry annual meeting, and networking to learn from their peers and industry leaders. Student Leadership Society members are second- or third-year optometry students selected by faculty at their schools to serve one-year terms.
