Hello, I need some advice. I'm a 2nd year studying optometry in Eastern Europe with big dreams to hopefully work and live in Canada or Europe (Norway or Switzerland due to high quality of life). I am not from EU. Im not sure if studying OptomClinc Masters after my Bachelor of Science in Optom (in 2nd year studying) will land me an effective opportunity to work in these countries since the European universities do not offer a path/intership in North America, and well I do not stand a chance to study in Canada due to high costs. Ideally, I would like to pursue masters in Europe or OD bridging programme (Waterloo) where i receive a licence to work as a qualified Optometrists. Norway's Masters in Optom seems promising and its my best option so far, but i don't have a chance to communicate with them as they're developing their programme.
Also, can anyone explain how the Masters in Clinical Optom is viewed in comparison to OD career in Canada? I need to research and get as much information and advice i need about working and studying post-grad optometry in Canada, Norway or Switzerland, so i would greatly appreciate your replies and if you can share your advice. Any ideas on how to make my dreams come true? Im just a hardworking young student who wants to earn a prestigious career in Optometry since its differently viewed around many parts of the world!!
