Hello, I am an ophthalmology assistant in Saint Louis and have been working in the same office for the last 5 years. Being an ophthalmology assistant sometimes is stressful because there are patients that have acute problems that need taken care of immediately. I work a lot with corneal topography and help one of our Optometrists with measuring the curvature of the eye so he can fit corneal refractive therapy contact leneses. These kind of contact leneses help so that kids do not continue to get more nearsighted. It is pretty cool. I hope you enjoy my online information.
