We were grateful to spend time with @Bosmaenterprise & Visionary Opportunities Foundation, where more than half the employees are visually impaired or blind. We learned about the increasing need for funding & services for the 160,000 Hoosiers living with vision loss.
Dr. Jeni Kohn, Indiana Optometry President & IU School of Optometry Class of 2008 graduate, addressed the IUSO 2026 graduates today in Bloomington. She shared inspiring advice to more than 50 of the 78 graduates in attendance. Congratulations to the IUSO Class of 2026.
When @FernandoMendoza noticed his vision slipping, he knew he had to do something about it. @IU_Optometry helped bring everything back into focus. And the results speak for themselves.

Promoting eye health is always a priority of our client @IndianaEyeDocs, and we were happy to help share that message earlier this week during the annual Optometrists Day at the Statehouse! Thank you to the ODs who attended and the many legislators who stopped by to visit.
