Optometrists and opticians: perhaps there’s no greater partnership in patient care! As ODs, we depend on opticians to help educate our patients about the best optical technology to help get them seeing with the same clarity as they did behind the phoropter. And for opticians, they depend on the prescribing doctor to be expert sleuths detecting medical conditions that could limit the patient’s visual quality, as well as dedicated listeners to write prescriptions that solve each unique patient’s visual needs.
We talk the doctor/optical handoff and how she’s been able to get so deeply involved in the industry as a young certified optician on this new podcast!
