专业概况

Optometrists (O.D.) are the independent primary healthcare professionals for the eye. They examine, diagnose, treat, and manage diseases, injuries, and disorders of the visual system, the eye, and the associated structures as well as identify related systematic conditions affecting the eye. Formal optometry education takes four years, with residency and extern programs taking place during the fourth year. Upon graduation, a board certification test is required. In order to remain certified, optometrists must complete at least 30 hours of board-approved continuing education each biennial period.

Optometrists practice in many settings, some of which include:

Individual Private Practice

Partnership or Group Practice

Academic / Research

Retail / Optical Settings

Interdisciplinary Care

Corporate / Industrial

Military / Public Health

Health Maintenance Organization

Optometric / Ophthalmologic Professional Settings

Optometrists should not be confused with ophthalmologists (physicians who perform eye surgery in addition to diagnose and treat eye conditions) or dispensing opticians (who design, fit and dispense corrective eyeglasses and contact lenses following prescriptions written by optometrists or ophthalmologists).
