Description

What does a Vision Technician Do?

In the Vision Technician Course, students are trained in taking the history of patients, doing refraction and eye examinations (including slit lamp and applanation tonometry), and in the use of A-scan and the keratometer to calculate IOL power. They are also trained in community-based activities like doing surveys and screenings, and in informing local people on eye care.
