CooperVision introduced its Bright Fellows recognition program to help motivate third- and fourth-year optometry students to take full advantage of a wide range of opportunities to expand their education. Students enrolled in the program accumulate points for completing educational activities—from attending industry conferences to fitting patients in contact lenses—progressing through tiers that earn them eligibility for scholarships and awards.

With each new points tier reached, students earn rewards and increase their chances of being selected for an all-expenses paid trip to attend the 2025 CooperVision New Graduate Summit upon graduation. In addition, the student with the most points accumulated at the end of their fourth year at each school and college of optometry will receive the CooperVision Excellence in Contact Lens Award, which includes a scholarship.

Interested third- and fourth-year optometry students can enroll in the Bright Fellows program at any time through the CooperVision Online Success Center at www.onlinesuccesscenter.com.
