Welcome to the American Academy of Optometry Student Page. Because the Academy recognizes that you are the future of optometry, this resource has been created. It does not matter if you are already a student member, or just starting to learn about the Academy.
This page is your one stop resource.
Information about membership, Student Travel Fellowships, special student events and more will be available. There are only a few items available at this time, but keep checking. The page is under construction and more will be added. Do you have suggestions or comments? Send them to Director, Education & Member Relations,
Helen Viksnins.
