- W2005015613 abstract "Since the first opticians acquired registration and specific educational qualifications there have been many changes in the field of eye care. It could be said that the techniques of refraction have not changed greatly or that the shop fronts and some newspaper advertising differ little from years ago. However, there are several aspects of optometry which have progressed significantly. In the field of education, there are minimium standards which have been set down and achieved. In research, international publications have resulted in recognition in several areas such as colour vision, human factors and lighting engineering, and ocular physiology and pathology in addition to the more obviously optometric areas like contact lenses, optics and strabismus. In all these areas the optometrist is uniquely qualified.However, what of the other facets of optometry? Have we as a clinical profession kept abreast with scientific advances which can benefit our patients and the public in general? There are numerous new instruments and techniques, but is our moral and social conscience sufficiently developed to ensure that all or even the majority of optometrists are making use of such advances? There must be a minimum comprehension gap between the practising optometrist and the academics and researchers in the fields of visual science and optometry.We must be equipped to cope with computer lens design, with electronic instrumentation, drug use, new diagnostic techniques and the numerous technical innovations of our age. Without this type of progress can we give the best possible service and should we call ourselves a profession? My intention today is to look at some of the aspects of the profession of optometry and to see which of these have shown progress and which have shown regression. of even greater importance is the problem of how can progress in the future be assisted." @default.
