The average salary for a BSc in Perfusion Technology in India is between INR 2.97 - INR 15 LPA. Whereas, the average salary for a BSc Optometry in India is between INR 2 - 5.2 LPA.
For those looking for specialised roles with high technical skills, BSc Perfusion Technology may have an edge in niche placements. However, BSc Optometry provides a wider range of opportunities and better scope for independent practice, making it more versatile.

A BSc in Optometry equips graduates with specialised knowledge in eye care, focusing on diagnosing and treating vision problems, prescribing corrective lenses, and managing eye diseases.
In contrast, a BSc in Cardiovascular Technology focuses on cardiovascular health, training graduates to perform diagnostic tests.
The choice may hinge on whether one is more interested in specializing in eye care and vision health (Optometry) or cardiovascular diagnostics and interventions (Cardiovascular Technology).
