Optometrist

                                            Optometrist

Duties and Responsibilities:
      Optometrists treat vision problems. They treat vision problems by diagnosing the problem and then prescribing the correct eyeglasses, contact lenses and vision therapy. Some optometrists specialize in industrial vision safety and environmental care. Most optometrists are self-employed, however many work for hospitals, government agencies, optical manufacturers, or universities.

Salary:  $78,000                                         



Education:
      Students in high school should take AP or BI classes in math, science, and English. Before entering an optometry school at least two years of college in a pre-professional program is required. Optometry school is four years. Optometrists need to pass state exams before starting training or practice.



I wouldn’t want to be an optometrist because it doesn't catch my attention. I rather be a doctor who does surgeries.
