Optometrist

Optometrist

Duties and Responsibilities:
   They diagnose the vision problem and prescribe the eyeglasses, contact lenses, or vision therapy you need. The difference they have with ophthalmologists is that optometrists can write medical prescriptions, treat diseases, or perform surgery.  Most of them are self-employed, but some work in hospitals, government agencies, optical manufacturers, or universities.
Average Salary: $78,000
Educational Requirements:
   You should take the highest courses in math, science, and English. Before optometry school you need at least two years of a pre-professional program in college. Optometry school is four years long and after you earn the degree of Doctor of Optometry, you must pass state tests before starting the practice.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

I would not like to be an optometrist because I am not interested in this type of career. I would like to work with more of the human body.
