Hi Rishiraj,
To practice as an optometrist it is essential to have a Bachelor's degree in Optometry. The optometrists may practice alone or in collaboration with other eye specialists or teach.
An optometrist can:
Manage his or her own eye clinic, optical shop, lens manufacturing unit
Contribute to eye tests, contact lenses, exercises

Teach optometry
Help detect diseases or fit contact lenses/Low Vision Aids
