National Vision has awarded $7,000 in grants to three third- and fourth-year optometry students. Applicants were challenged to share their perspectives on which changes implemented during COVID-19 will become a permanent part of how optometrists practice and provide healthcare services.

“The current pandemic has impacted nearly every facet of the way the world works,” said Alex Louw, Chief Medical Officer, National Vision. “As we thought about our prompt for this year’s grant program, it was an obvious selection, and our winners answered a daunting and complex question with unique, informed points of view.”
