Hi guys,
I am playing the interview day over and over in my head, assuming I get the intervew!
I am thinking though, if they were to ask me why I wanted to be an optometrist, what I would say. I am generally interested in healthcare, love optometry, didn't pursue opthomology b/c I would not pursue surgery myself (risks, cost, post care, many patients need glasses after surgery) and I like reading about vision care, love the field.
I don't have a great childhood story about visiting optometrists as I don't wear glasses or contacts, and I just feel I don't have a good enough answer.
What did YOU say at the interview? What will you say if you haven't had the interview yet?
