Welcome to my day in the life as an Ophthalmic Technician or medical assistant whichever you prefer. Ophthalmic medical assistants and techs do a lot of the same things but there can be small differences.

So I had to turn it down cause of the music but then I can’t hear you cause you’re whispering. Balancing needed for future ref. Thx for the upload though.
I am a senior ophthalmic technician at medical surgical office that specializes in surgery and eye diseases like the ones you mentioned! I work closely with medical optometrists and ophthalmologists and it’s interesting to see the work flow of a different clinic. I work up patients and scribe for the doctors during exams as well as assist during procedures and perform other testing! So cool to see you training in the process so thank you for sharing!!
Great video! Looking forward to seeing more😊
Such a great explanation video thanks!!
I'm currently a optometric technician @ an optometrist clinic, but I want to do more of the medical things, so I might go and see some schooling in the Opthalmology side of things.
This is really good! Great job! You shared a few gems! I was okkkk yes!
Thanks hun your video was one of the first I ever watched
What’s the difference between a ophthalmic tech vs optometric tech?
Super educational, very interesting!
Thank you so much for doing this video. I am starting an apprentice ophthalmic Tech program in January so I've been doing lot's and lot's of research. I'm truly excited. I'm glad I came across your video. Please share what's the name of the opening song. Great song choices. I really like the first song. Thanks again!

Hey there thanks for watching and your lovely comments. The music is linked in description. It’s by public committee on thematic music!
I hope you have all success in ophthalmic field!
Great informative video!!
Thank you darling!
I'm interviewing for a trainee job any pointers ? I have a background in science and have worked in a lab, in retail and as a special needs assistant i hope this job would allow me to help people and work with people rather than things( lab work can be very mundane and lonely) I am a really people person. i feel excited to learn . learning more about the human body and how it works fascinates me too
@@ChanelQ_ thanks so much for the advice I felt the interview went really well they told me they could see me really enjoying the role and asked when I could start if they choose me. Fingers crossed. I will let you know when I hear x
Hello, thanks for the vid! I am thinking of getting into this, but had a question. Would you say this is a stressful job or were the patients mean? Thanks!
Hey there, so like all jobs working with people there are going to be mean patients or customers. Not every day is the same, sometimes people are super nice and sometimes they aren't. Theres stress as well but just depends on how well you can put up with things and if you are willing because you love what you do.
Thanks for showing the Instruments. I find them Instruments.
You’re welcome!
what is the difference between optometrist and ophthalmic technician
Optometrist is a doctor who specializes in primary vision care for the eyes. They can disgnose diseases as well but normally don’t treat serious cases, they would send to an ophthalmologist who would treat them. And an ophthalmology technician would be that doctors assistant. They have a little more responsibility than a regular optometric tech.
I just got hired as a optometric tech and I have NO idea what any equipment are called or anything not even medical terms. I want to have some knowledge on my first day. Do you recommend any apps or anything that helped you?
Hi there! I used a lot of free quizes on quizlet and I also used youtube as well. I dont know of any apps tho im sorry! Im sure you will do well tho!
Did you go to school for this or on the job training or studied at home. I would love to know! I'm thinking about getting into this career field 🙂
@@ChanelQ_
Ok, great, will check it out! After looking I see you're working from home now as a referral specialist? I've never heard of that, you have me curious now LoL
Thanks for responding! 😊
@@ChanelQ_ Awesome! I'm going to be looking into it soon! Thanks again and you be blessed! 😊
Hi C Q, May I ask did how long was you working in the Ophthalmic field? I ask because you said your new job is a breath of fresh air. Lol
I am from Nepal and I am an ophthalmic assistant. How can I work there as ophthalmic assistant? Suggest me please
What are the requirements to become an opthalmic technician? I'm currently an optician and I'm trained with the manual lensometer, auto-lensometer, auto-refractor, pupilometer, tonometer, and the tracer machine. Is the work similar or do I need to complete college for this?
No schooling , I got in off pst experience in pharmacy tech and retail. I will say it helps tho, you’ll probably learn quicker. And the main difference is we do more clinical than opticians do. We don’t really work with glasses except reading lenses. Everything else is clinical’ sounds like you would make a smooth transition! I’d consider it for sure
How long will the training process be if hired with no certification?
@@ChanelQ_ 👌🏽 thank you so much for that!!
I'm very jealous of you 🥺...I'm an Eye Technician, and I love the work I do, but the Doctor I work for is a complete jerk. He is EXTREMELY overly critical, and any small mistake sends him into an angry rage. I feel stressed and sick to my stomach going to work. There was a bunch of us new people there, because everyone else had quit, and we were still learning, and because we were new, and we were making little mistakes. He went into an absolute RAGE at the end of the day. I LOVE eye care, but I can't stand working here..
Don’t be jealous, I’m sure you are great at what you do. And every day is a learning day. I hope you find a enter doctor to work for. No one deserves that treatment, I’m sorry friend. :(
@@ChanelQ_ Thank you soo much! And by the grace of god,I have an interview with stanton optical clinic🙏
Yay! I hope you get it!
@@ChanelQ_ YAY!! I got the Job!

I literally start tomorrow! I’m so new to everything! Any tips is welcome! I’m so nervous! Ahh! 😭🤍 I’m an artist, with no medical background that grew interest in this field.
Ahhh wishing you all the success! That’s so freakin exciting! Glad you got a new job and hope they treat you well friend!

This is the perfect opportunity for you, it's the intersection of eyes, patients, and applied science. How much patient interaction you have/ conversations is really up to you. Best of luck!
