OUR MISSION
To educate members about the profession of optometry and the requirement for admission to a professional program, and thereby assist members in becoming successful applicants to the optometry school/college of their choice, while striving to promote fellowship, provide opportunities for leadership and to provide community service.
MEETINGS
Meeting times are typically on Thursdays at 7:00pm. Lecturers at meetings consist of recruiters from colleges of optometry who discuss their programs, professors at Baylor, and doctors of optometry. We also have workshops that help with the Optometry Admissions Test, applying to schools, interviewing skills and more!
OUTREACH
Service is an integral part of healthcare. We volunteer at the VA Blind Rehabilitation Center, Prevent Blindness Texas, and many others!
