Why ICO?
Prospective students should come to ICO for the outstanding clinical training they will receive at the IEI. Our students are well-versed in managing complex ocular disease cases prior to graduation. Additionally, our didactic program and its’ dedicated faculty, continually helps our students excel on the National Board Examinations.
