Optometrists are NOT doctors

11 Feb 2022

Description

In this episode we speak about the common translation of the word optometrist to eye doctor. This is probably okay in layman terms but it is concerningly incorrect. The word doctor brings certain expectations to the patient. Patients, because they do not know any better, may go to an optometrist whereas they should be going to see a general practitioner or an ophthalmologist.  What is the difference and why the fuss?  We explain all this in detail in the podcast. Enjoy.
