Ophthalmology is a medical discipline whose main content is to protect the visual health of human eyes. It focuses on ophthalmology and optometry. The following are the details I have compiled. Let's have a look!

Introduction to ophthalmology:

Ophthalmic optics is a combination of modern optical technology and modern ophthalmology. It is an interesting, challenging and rewarding medical profession to solve visual impairment by using the principles and technologies of modern optics.

The main courses of optometry are: pathological anatomy, medical imaging, low vision, geometric optics, clinical ophthalmology, clinical medicine synthesis, optometry, vision and applied technology, visual neurophysiology and optician.

Employment status of optometry;

Ophthalmology has existed for a long time in developed countries, and there are also specialized ophthalmologists. Many colleges and universities have also set up optometry colleges and departments to train optometrists through educational mode, thus training professional optometrists. Optometry education in China did not appear until the reform and opening up, and it was completely blank before that.

1983 China held the first class of ophthalmology refraction, and held related academic exchange seminars. In the same year, the "Ophthalmic Refractive Album" was published, which had a very important impact on the cultivation of talents and the improvement of refractive optics in China.

Although optometry education in China only took root at the end of last century, optometry higher education in western countries has long been mature. We can fully learn from the advantages of western education model, and on this basis, combined with the national conditions of China, create a teaching model with China characteristics.
