While a BSc in Ophthalmic Technology will not make you an ophthalmologist, it allows you to work as an ophthalmic technician or assistant who supports the diagnosis and treatment of patients.
To work as an ophthalmologist, you must complete a medical degree (MBBS) and an additional medical qualification in Ophthalmology such as MS or MD in Ophthalmology.
