Optometrists are primary healthcare professionals who specialize in vision care. They primarily perform eye exams to assess vision, prescribe corrective lenses (glasses or contact lenses), diagnose certain eye conditions, and provide non-surgical treatments for common eye problems like astigmatism, nearsightedness, farsightedness, and presbyopia.
