Elle asked:


I have to do a report on Optometry for Science, and it has to do with Earth Science and how optometry relates to that. My teacher said that it relates to earth science because of how optemtrists crush lenses. Could someone please help find info or share your knowledge about these topics. Thanks.

cl_skl_girl asked:


I’m not too sure what I want to pursue as a career. Its between optometry, ophthalmology and dentistry. Can I do a certain bachelor for 3-4 years to give me time to decide what I really want to do? Or does each career require a different bachelor degree?

Me in TN asked:


My mother is in need of an eye exam & glasses. She is elderly & has Medicare, plus Blue Cross/Blue Shield. One of the insurances will NOT pay for regular optometry, but will help pay for theraputic optometry. Does this mean she’d have to have something severe wrong w/her vision or eyes, before she could see a theraputic optometrist? Or would they do regular exams as well?
