RELOCATION ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE
*Summary:* The Optometrist, or Eye Doctor, is responsible for providing comprehensive vision care to patients so they can care for their eyes and access tools to support their eyesight. Their duties include conducting eye inspections, identifying signs of disease or injury and prescribing corrective lenses.
Optometrists provide accessible diagnosis, treatment and referrals for vision-related issues. Their role is to inspect a patient’s eyes and perform a series of tests to identify issues with depth perception and clarity. They can provide basic treatments and vision therapy or refer patients to a medical doctor who specializes in eye care. Optometrists analyze test results to determine what kinds of corrective lenses, visual aids or other treatment measures will help their patient with issues like blurriness or headaches associated with sight issues.
Optometrists begin appointments by asking the patient questions about their eyesight and any symptoms they experience. They ask about any pain, blurriness, itchiness or other vision issues before beginning the examination. Optometrists coach patients on where to look and when to open their eyes so that they can dilate their eyes and perform a retinal exam. They ask patients to interpret letters, numbers and images without an aid and then using different types of lenses. Optometrists diagnose eye conditions and consult on custom contacts for people with astigmatism or other abnormalities that impact the eye’s shape.
