Optometry Technicians are trained to provide primary eye care services, including vision testing, refraction, and contact lens fitting. They work alongside ophthalmologists in eye hospitals, optical stores, and vision therapy centers.
Their responsibilities include eye testing, prescribing corrective lenses, diagnosing minor eye conditions, and assisting in eye surgeries. With increased awareness about eye health and rising screen time, demand for optometry professionals is growing rapidly.
In India, Advance Diploma Optometry Technicians earn between ₹3,00,000 – ₹6,50,000 per year, depending on skills and job location.
