CooperVision launches app for students
With the new OptiStudent app, CooperVision is now giving optometry and ophthalmology students access to a wide range of high-quality content from the fields of ophthalmology, myopia management, presbyopia and astigmatism. Students can also learn more about special examination techniques and contact lens fitting.
Each section contains interviews, tutorials, videos and courses. Petra Zapsky: "Our aim is to provide the best possible learning support for young opticians. To this end, we provide learners with expert knowledge via the app, which provides them with valuable information for their studies." Petra Zapsky is Head Professional Affairs and Myopia Management CooperVision D-A-CH.
Students can also use the app to apply for the CooperVision OptiStudent Award, formerly known as FORCE. This annual competition organized by the company is aimed at students of optics/optometry throughout Europe. The winner goes home with the title "CooperVision OptiStudent of the Year". This year, the final of the competition will take place on September 16 at CooperVision's Innovation Center in Budapest.
The app is available in English and can be downloaded free of charge from Google Play or the Apple AppStore.
