Ophthalmic
Technician
Duties and
Responsibilities: Ophthalmic technicians or technologists help ophthalmologists
collect data and measurements to allow the correct diagnosis and treatment of
eye diseases and problems. They work at
hospitals, clinics, or for ophthalmologists in private practice. Their duties often include:
· Performing simple eye exams.
· Assisting with eye surgery.
· Explaining diagnostic and treatment
procedures to patients.
Salary:
$14,000 - $25,000
Education: Students
will need a high school diploma (or GED certificate) and two years of college
prior to beginning ophthalmic training programs. These programs may vary in length, but can
take up to two years to complete
Reflection:
I think I don’t want to become a Ophthalmic Technician because I don’t want to
work with the human eye.
