White Coat Ceremony

​

Every year, we celebrate our students as they transition from lab work (where they mostly practice in student pairs) to work in the clinic (where they meet current IEI patients.) This ceremony serves as a reminder of their commitment both to optometry and to their patients. By donning their white coats and swearing the optometric oath, they reinforce their dedication to the patients they will serve in Illinois Eye Institute and beyond.​
