Hii

•Certified ophthalmic assistants work closely with ophthalmologists, or eye doctors, and are entry-level professionals. No formal education beyond a high school diploma or GED is necessary to work as an opthalmic assistant. Certification is available through a professional organization, often increasing job opportunities and salary potential for ophthalmic assistants.

•Aspirants who wish to make his/her career in ophthalmology have to first check the eligibility and necessary entrance exams to appear. To become Ophthalmologists you have to first complete MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) course and then go for the postgraduate degree in ophthalmology like MS (Master of Surgery), MD (Doctor of Medicine), etc. After completing PG course in this field you can also pursue doctoral courses in this field.
