Ophthalmologist

Ophthalmologist
Duties and Responsibilities
Ophthalmologists are physicians who specialize in the treatment of eye disorders and diseases. They treat vision problems and write prospections for both pharmaceuticals and corrective eyeglasses lenses. When necessary, they perform eye surgery. Most ophthalmologist are in private practice, however some are employed by hospitals or clinic, and others perform research.
Average Salary: $90,000-$150,000
Educational Requirements:                                                      Only physicians may study to become ophthalmologist. After completing medical school and an internship, an ophthalmologist must complete a three to five year residency in an approved ophthalmology program. After completing their residency program they must pass and examination to be certified.


Reflection: I think I will like to be one because they get paid a good amount of money. Also because I want to help people have a better eye vision. It also seems interesting what ophthalmologist do.
