Optometry syllabus includes a balance between classroom learning as well as applied and practical training. In course, there are subjects like ocular physiology, contact lens technology and even optometric instruments that students study and also go through practical sessions.
Also clinical postings and internships in hospitals help them diagnose refractive errors, manage vision therapy and even assist in specialised eye care.

Both courses include core subjects such as anatomy, optics and even ocular diseases. But there are also some key differences like BSc Optometry is more academically oriented which focuses more on Science and theory behind eye care.
But B.Optom is more about clinical practice and patient care with more structured hospital training.

Yes Optometry courses place a strong focus on practical training and hospital exposure. Students go through laboratory work, clinical postings and even hands-on sessions with diagnostic equipment.
Most colleges make it sure that hospital internships are there during final year, where students usually examine patients under some supervision.
This experience not only helps them apply theoretical knowledge in real scenarios but also build confidence in them and even develop essential skills in them that are required for careers as clinical optometrists or specialists.
