Ophthalmologists

Duties and Responsibilities:  Ophthalmologist are physicians who specialize in treatment of eye disorders and disease. They treat vision problems and write prescriptions for both pharmaceutical and corrective eyeglass lenses. When necessary, they perform eye surgery.

 

Salary: $90,000-$150,000

Education: Only physicians may study to become ophthalmologists. After completing medical school and an internship, an ophthalmologist must then complete a three to five year residency program they must be examination certified.

Reflection: I do think that I would want to do this as a career job because it does pay a lot of money and because I would really be interested in being necessary to do surgery.
