This awesome group of 22 students, 6 doctors, 4 opticians and three staff members (all volunteers) participated in delivering care to 74 patients and prescribed 69 pairs of eyeglasses at @calvarychapeleastanaheim Blessfest 2019. Although it was rainy, everyone’s spirits were uplifted from guests from various shelters throughout Orange County.

One of our talented students, Caroline Quan, SCCO '22, was recently featured in @womenods and she shared how her passion for art and optometry coincided, “With art and all that I do in optometry, it’s about the story telling. The eyes and its blood vessels are telling a story about the rest of the patient’s body." http://bit.ly/2LPpxed

Tiffany Khieu put her pharmacy skills to use in an unforgettable way during her MBKU Lions Club medical mission trip, she shared, “¡Buenos días! On Thanksgiving Break, I traveled to Michoacán, Mexico along with my fellow MBKU Lions Club members, our group included six optometry students and three pharmacy students. There, we served 1,300 patients with general and eye health services. From taking blood pressures to dispensing glasses, each student exercised their knowledge and skills learned from school to help each patient.

Aaron Hunro is quite the busy PA student (like many others), but shared with us why it’s important for him to share his path with others, “Many students wonder how I have the time to balance school, life and mentor Pre-PA students. The answer is, I don't. But my passion is there. As the former MBKU Pre-PA Mentorship Club Co-President, I was able to strengthen my connection and network with various local Pre-PA clubs. The reason why I do various things such as vitals workshops, presentations, and Q&A sessions is that one day these students might be my future PA colleagues.
