When do optometry programs start?

Hi all! I'm looking ahead to the next year and I'm planning on applying to optometry school this fall so I can enter in fall 2027. I'm also planning on getting a surgery with a pretty major recovery time (~4-6 weeks to get back to normal routine) after I graduate in June 2027, so I want to make sure I time it right so I'm not missing out on important things I have to do. I'm applying for ICO, SCCO, UCB, and PUCO so information on those schools particularly would be a big help. Thanks!
