Optometry is a specialized technical activity. An optometrist is actually half an ophthalmologist and half an optical engineer. In the process of optometry, he can understand the causes of abnormal visual function and decreased vision of patients with visual impairment, and judge whether he can diagnose the visual impairment caused by ametropia or eye disease during optometry, which is impossible for a single computer optometry.
Optometrist: Check whether the refractive nature of the patient's eyes is emmetropia, hyperopia or myopia, measure the diopter, evaluate and analyze the tertiary visual function, and then decide whether the patient needs glasses and how many pairs of glasses to wear, and prescribe a reasonable optometry prescription.
