What is optometry?

Optometry is a healthcare profession focused on examining, diagnosing, treating, and managing disorders of the eyes and visual system. Optometrists are trained to perform eye exams, prescribe corrective lenses, detect eye diseases, and provide certain treatments. They play a crucial role in maintaining eye health and may also offer advice on eye care and vision protection. In many regions, optometrists work closely with ophthalmologists and other healthcare providers.
