Participatory Medicine: Medical Interpretation for the Optometric Eye Exam

"Which is better, one or two?" This course will cover what to expect when a patient receives an eye and vision examination with optometry or ophthalmology. Included is pertinent family history, patient medications, and systemic diseases that affect the eyes and vision. The course will also detail refraction, or the determination of the eyeglass prescription, binocular vision, and the ocular health exam. Introduction to the multiple special instruments used uniquely in eye care will round out the course.
