Associations

Canadian Association of Optometry Students (CAOS)

The Canadian Association of Optometry Students was first established in 1990 with several goals: to increase student awareness about current issues and challenges facing the profession of optometry in Canada, to increase public awareness of optometry's role as the primary vision care provider throughout the community, and to encourage strong communication and involvement between students and their future co-workers, which will provide an enlightened group of future optometrists who will effectively deal with future challenges. CAOS is an international organization with members throughout Canada, the United States, and Puerto Rico.
