OPTOMETRIST Definition| Urban Word Dictionary

OPTOMETRIST

My dream job. All the optometrists I know are badasses that look at eyes all day. They improve people's vision on the daily, prescribe glasses and contacts, look at the back of the eye and detect illnesses from retinal detachments to Diabetes to brain tumors. They pick the most long-lasting, least invasive medical treatments first and only refer for surgery if necessary. I have a great optometrist. He pretty much saved my life.Optometrists make really good money and have the lowest divorce rate of all occupations. I'd become one if it didn't take 8+ years of school and only about 1 in 8 applicants are accepted into the 22 US schools :/

optometrist

by ThePunisher7755 on Aug 13, 2010 04:07:49

A person that chose, unbelievably, not to go to school until they are 35 in order to work as a doctor. Along with this, they must deal with ignorant dumbasses that think they have no medical training, even though many schools teach the exact same classes to both. Upon graduation, these people will usually work privately, and get to be their own boss eventually. Some will work in chain stores, but take out really solid cash.

Example:
So are you an opthalmologist?

Shit no. I'm not an egotistical asshat, and with the 6 practices I own while those douches slave for their HMO I make more money than one anyway.I'm an optometrist, not a boring self-important hospital company knob polisher.

Optometrist

Optometrists scope of practice extends from prescription of spectacles and contact lenses, to the medical treatment of ocular disease. Unlike an Ophthalmologist, an Optometrist has a thorough training in pure and visual optics; they are thus experts within the science of refraction. Entrance requirements to Optometry are invariably high. Nevertheless salaries are high: £35,000 starting salary($70,000)with the future potential to double or triple this.

Example:
I saw the Optometrist yesterday, they have given me a prescription for new spectacles and prescribed an antibiotic for my conjunctivitis.
