Hello,

For admission in these courses, students have to pass Bachelor degree in Optometry or equivalent course from any Indian University. To become Optometrists, you have completed 4 year bachelor degree program, preferably in a relevant field such as biology, chemistry, or physiology.

I hope my answer helps. All the very best for your future endeavors!

Hello aspirant

An optometrist is a doctor of optometry ( O.D. ), and not a medical doctor. S/he has to work through various vision therapies to treat abnormalities, and can prescribe drugs for the eyes. If surgery is required, the patient is sent to an ophthalmologist (M.D.)

Optometrists can prescribe controlled medications for eye conditions. Depending on the state legislation, some optometrists can also perform minor surgeries. These surgical procedures may include foreign body removal, laser eye surgery, and certain additional surgical interventions.

Hope this helps. All the best.

Hello Shreyansh,

Optometrists can handle nearly all the medical aspects of ophthalmology. They can prescribe medications and treat eye diseases but they do not perform surgery.

When patients develop cataracts, optometrists can help them navigate the surgical course, and an optometrist practice situation often dictates his or her specific role in patient care.

Hope it helps.

Good Luck!
