    Bachelor of Optometry balances both theory and practical learning. Initially, students study theoretical subjects like optics, ocular anatomy, and pathology to build strong foundational knowledge.

    Gradually, the programme shifts towards clinical training, eye examinations, and patient interaction. By the final year, hands-on practice dominates, ensuring graduates can confidently handle real-world cases.
