Both optometrists and ophthalmologists examine eyes and prescribe eyeglasses and contact lenses. ... With a few exceptions, optometrists in the INDIA are not trained or licensed to perform eye surgery.

Perform vision tests and analyze results. Diagnose sight problems, such as nearsightedness or farsightedness, and eye diseases, such as glaucoma. Prescribe eyeglasses, contact lenses, and other visual aids, and if state law permits, medications.
