He has also won the scholarship for overseas exchange programme. Alan has actively participated in volunteer service and organized vision screening activities to promote eye care awareness locally and globally. “I went to the Queensland University of Technology for my clinical placements. It not only enhanced my clinical knowledge and skills, but also provided me with a great platform to better understand the foreign culture and community. I became more mature and independent. Studying at PolyU is undoubtedly fabulous! To show my sincere gratitude to all faculty members and mentors, I would make use of my knowledge for giving back to the society.” Alan expressed.
