I'm sure this has been posted before, but anyone ever consider opthalmology instead of optometry?
I would like to hear how others made or are making their decisions.... I understand the difference in performing eye surgery as opposed to just seeing patients, and the differences in length of training and earning potential, but I am intersted to hear what people are basing their choices on. It almost feels like most people who go the MD path don't choose to specialize in eye care until after getting into med school. Just trying to make an informed decision, any input appreciated.
