hello everyone,
i was posting on behalf of a friend (first year optom) and had a quick question. i noticed that there is a long list of equipment that they are required to buy (trial lenses, indirects, retinoscopes, etc) and was wondering why they have to purchase instruments that should be available in any properly equiped exam room. to the more senior optom students, do you find a use for owning these instruments once you are rotating through the clinics or after graduation? any input would be appreciated, thanks.
