Hey everyone,
I'll be applying for opt school next year so I still have lots of time to prepare.
I have no experience shadowing / volunteering / working for an optometrist, and Im wondering how much experience is recommended in an application.
I have 2 plans: (i) to volunteer once a week for 4 months OR (ii) to volunteer everyday for one week in an optometrists office. I want exposure to everything, but an optometrist's office and an optician's office are the only ideas I can think of.
What types of experiences have the rest of you applied with? (position + duration)
Thanks for your feedback!
