Leadership Giving Challenge
The profession of optometry continues to evolve. The Illinois College of Optometry is making strategic investments to capitalize on opportunities and address tomorrow’s challenges. With your support, ICO is able to advance the clinical services, research opportunities, and education experience that set our institution apart.
