Optometric Extension Program

An optometric extension program is a type of program that optical doctors (also known as optometrists) can take to learn more about eye health and how to take care of eyes in different ways. Some of the things they can learn include how to treat eye diseases and injuries, how to do different tests to make sure eyes are healthy, and different treatments that can help eyes stay healthy. When an optometrist completes an optometric extension program, they will get a certificate that shows they have the training and knowledge to provide better care for their patients.
