Optometrist

Duties and responsibilities: 
Optometrist are in charge of treating vision problems. They diagnose the problem and prescribe the correct order for eyeglasses, contact lenses, or vision therapy. They do not write the medical prescriptions, treat diseases, or perform surgery.

Average salary: $78,000

Educational requirements: 
students should take the most challenging high school courses in math, science, and English. They must take at least two years of college in a pre-professional programs. Optometry school is 4 years long. Optometrists must pass state exams before starting their career.


Reflection: 
honestly I would not like to be an Optometrist because I don’t want to work in something having to do with eyes. So therefore I believe an optometrist is not one of my dream careers.
