Why ICO?
ICO and the Illinois Eye Institute provide students with a strong optometric education and prepare them to become confident, well-rounded clinicians. Although I did not attend ICO as a student, my recent residency has given me the opportunity to see how dedicated the faculty are to supporting each student. I have also seen the meaningful impact ICO has on the Chicago community and knew I wanted to continue being part of an institution that is committed to both its students and patients.
