I acted as a clinical assistant at an ophthalmology clinic, where I gained experience in optometry, clinical patient evaluation, measuring intra-ocular pressure, and diagnosis of ophthalmology cases. We mainly worked with children with strabismus cases. However, we had a vast variety of cases involving all ages as well.
I performed many diagnostic procedures pertaining to ophthalmology, such as Optical Coherence Tomography, Corneal Topography, Retinal angiography, Visual field testing, IOL calculation, and also performed Corneal Cross Linking. In addition to that I assisted in LASIK and PRK surgeries, as well as YAG and ARGON laser treatment sessions.
