Ophthalmologist
Duties and
Responsibilities:
Ophthalmologists
are physicians who specialize in the treatment of eye disorders and diseases.
They treat vision problems and write prescriptions for both pharmaceuticals and
corrective eyeglass lenses. Most ophthalmologists are in private practice,
however some are employed by hospitals or clinics, and other perform research.
Average
Salary: $90,000-$150,000
Educational
Requirements:
Only
physicians may study to become ophthalmologists. After completing medical
school and internship, an ophthalmologist must then complete a three to five
year program. After completing their residency program they must pass an examination
to be certified.
Reflection:
Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not?
I wouldn’t
like to be an ophthalmologist because it looks like a very delicate and
confusing job.
