Optometry and opticianry students from across North America submitted projects for the 2011 Students of Vision Scholarship from Transitions Optical. Fifteen entries demonstrating this year's "multicultural" theme were selected as scholarship winners. Out of the three winners in the multimedia category, two  were from the Douglas College Dispensing Optician Program - Avin Kishore and Jermi Santos!

  2. So inspiring, this is why we have all become opticians... it is with this passion that we continue to service those in need and in return allow others to see.
