LJNRadio: I Want To Be A - Optometrist

Our eyes and other parts of the visual system are extremely important to take care of and treat over time. Optometrists specialize in helping individuals in these areas to prevent, diagnose and prevent problems. Dr. Jennifer Smythe, the president of the Association of Schools and Colleges of Optometry, joins the show to give Tim Muma an inside look at the profession, the key skills to a successful career, and what the educational path looks like to enter the industry. Children and even some adults fantasize about finding their dream job. Sometimes they don’t know what it is or how to get there. This show will walk our starry-eye job seekers through the reality of how to fulfill their life’s goal of becoming exactly what they want to do.
