Hello everyone,
First of all I hope you all are having a great holiday break. We're in the process of planning events, and other things for the next semester. So do please check the website frequently especially after the New Years. But until then, relax and enjoy the break with your love ones.

Hey guys!

Just wanted to say that I've been recently shadowing an optometrist in Willowbrook an today I asked him for ideas for community service relating to optometry. He gave me a couple of people to contact, so I'll get right on it and update you. Also, I thought of collecting glasses and donating them somewhere. Let me know if you have any ideas! My email is mithanif@hbu.edu

Happy holidays!! =)
