  1. Know The Best Optical Service Near You Few people go through life without having to pay a good optician or other optical services provider a few visits. For those with good eyesight when they are young, it is a great privilege, but even most of these individuals may, as they age, find that they need to see an optician to prescribe glasses to them, even if they are mere reading glasses. The optician is the professional that helps fit eyeglasses and contact lenses which have been prescribed to customers and patients by optometrists, ophthalmologists and other eyecare professionals. Some of these opticians work with optometrists in the same practice; others may be employed in a medical practice that provides for their services specifically. All eyecare professionals deal with patients and their eyes even if there are distinctions in what they do. These eyecare practitioners are normally one of the following three: the optometrist ophthalmologist. All of them provide optical services – all with different levels of education and training. The optician is the professional that can detect certain eye concerns, but they do not primarily offer eye health care; they are the professionals that primarily design and then fit glasses and contact lenses. They often act on the prescription of an optometrist or ophthalmologist and may own their own a retail shop where customers can be assisted with lenses and a choice of frames. optician, and the the The optometrist is the professional that carries out eye exams and is available to provide primary eye health care. He/she tests eyesight and vision, diagnoses and offers certain treatments and makes adjustments in patients’ eyecare needs, by sending them with a prescription to the optician. It is noted too that the terms optician and optometrist are sometimes used interchangeably even if there are clear distinctions between them. What is important, though, is to know that you should familiarize yourself with the best optical service near you. You may act on your GP’s recommendation and visit an optician or optometrist, or you may approach one of these professionals yourself for an appointment. Both the

Opticians, when they receive the prescription from the optometrist, will prepare and dispense contact lenses or lenses and frames. Before this happens, the optometrist will conduct the eye exam or test, including a range of vision tests. He/she is able to detect certain irregularities with patients’ vision and he/she may prescribe certain medications. They are not eye specialists that perform complicated surgeries such as those that specialists do, even though they are allowed to perform minor surgeries such as laser eye surgery and cataract removal, for example. The ophthalmologist is an eye specialist that first trains as a doctor, after which they study for a few more years in ophthalmology or specialist eyecare. They normally offer what optometrists (and opticians ) cannot do, which is diagnose and treat serious eye problems. They are the ones that perform eye surgeries. It is interesting to note that ophthalmologists may actually detect other conditions that are not related to eyecare when they see a patient. In that case they will refer the patient to their doctor or other specialist. In addition to their training as doctors and eye specialists, ophthalmologists may decide to specialize in one of the following subspecialities, for example as corneal specialist, or as a retina specialist, and other options. Eyecare specialists work all over big cities such as London, and whether you find yourself in Whitton, Twickenham, or elsewhere, it is a good idea to find out who the best optical service near you is, so that you do not have to look around too much when you need the help of an optical service.
