The Bachelor of Optometry program is designed to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary to become optometrists. Optometry involves the examination, diagnosis, treatment, and management of disorders and diseases related to the visual system and eyes. Throughout the program, students learn about ocular anatomy and physiology, vision science, optics, pharmacology, and clinical optometry. They also gain practical experience through clinical rotations and internships in optometry clinics or eye care centers. Graduates of this program are prepared to provide primary eye care services, including vision testing, prescribing corrective lenses, detecting eye diseases, and providing vision therapy. They may work in various settings, such as private optometry practices, hospitals, community health centers, or corporate eye care facilities, helping individuals maintain optimal eye health and vision.
