Third-year students Paige and Morgan proudly represented KYCO this weekend at the Johnson & Johnson Institute in Jacksonville, Florida, as part of the ACUVUE Intern Program! They had the opportunity to learn from industry professionals, expand their clinical knowledge, and connect with fellow optometry students from across the country. We’re so proud of them for representing KYCO and making the most of this incredible experience! by @upike_kyco

It was such a pleasure to recognize fourth-year KYCO student Chris Bush as he received his Student Fellowship in the American Academy of Optometry.

Chris has a genuine passion for research and has represented KYCO well through his presentations at both the Academy and ARVO. I'm proud of all he has accomplished and can't wait to see where his career takes him.

Congratulations, Chris! 👏
