Ophthalmologist

Duties and Responsibilities:   Ophthalmologists are physicians who specialize in the treatment of eye disorders and diseases.  They treat vision problems and write prescriptions for both pharmaceuticals and corrective eyeglass lenses.  When necessary, they perform eye surgery.  Most ophthalmologists are in private practice, however some are employed by hospitals or clinics, and others perform research.

Salary:  $90,000 - $150,000

Education:  

Only physicians may study to become ophthamologists.  After completing medical school and an internship, an ophthalmologist must then complete a three to five year residency in an approved ophthalmology program.  After completing their residency program they must pass an examination to be certified.

Reflection:  I think that a ophthalmologist is a important thing because of all the kind of things of they are doing .  They have a job that many people don;t have.
