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.

The average salary for a dialysis technician in India is between INR 49,000 and INR 6 LPA. Whereas, the average annual salary for a BSc in Perfusion Technology in India is between INR 2.97 Lacs and INR 15 lakhs. 

If you're more interested in working with patients who need kidney care,  BSc Dialysis would be a good choice. However, if you're fascinated by cardiac surgeries and want to work in highly specialised environments, BSc Perfusion Technology could be a better option.

Both fields offer rewarding careers, but perfusion technology may offer higher specialisation and scope for advancement.
