Okay so I have been reading through old threads from 2014, 2011, 2010, etc. about how the field is over saturated? If I go in state I will have about $40,000 in loans per year including tuition, fees, equipment, living expenses, etc. That equates to $160,000 in loans. Excluding interest. My uncle started practicing in 1993 and said he is glad he started then. I don't even want to think of out of state costs. My main concern is that I have picked a potential profession that I will have a lot of student loans but not be able to find a good paying job to pay back those loans.
Is there any advice from recent optometry schools graduates or those in private practice? Do you feel optometry is still a good field to go into? Is 1800 Contacts and other online CL and glasses companies going to clear out the retail portion of practices?
