According to a statement on Wednesday, the company donated 200 pairs of frames and 1,000 pieces of contact lenses to Centro Escolar University (CEU) in Manila, Lyceum Northwestern University (LNU) in Pangasinan, and Southwestern University (SWU) PHINMA in Cebu to be used by Optometry students in classrooms.
CEU Optometry Clinicians Club president Jamie Oo noted that the initiative would allow optometry students to further their learning experiences and develop their skills with the use of provided resources.
'Our future colleagues are giving us a helping hand and investing in our growth today,' Oo said.
Meanwhile, Vision Express said that they aimed to 'shape the minds and sharpen the skills' of aspiring Filipino optometrists with the donation project. — Jiselle Anne C. Casucian/BM, GMA Integrated News
