The optical service industry is a semi-medical and semi-commercial industry, most consumers such as myopia, farsightedness and other problems can be satisfied through the general services of ordinary optical stores, but there are still a large proportion of people need more professional knowledge and equipment to solve, so, to what place can get the real optometry service? Many customers think that hospital optometry is more professional and accurate due to concerns about the quality of optometry in general optical stores, so they take the approach of going to the hospital for optometry and going to the optical store for glasses, which is a very smart approach, but not the best choice. First of all, to go to the hospital for optometry, not only do you have to spend 20 yuan to 70 yuan for registration and examination fees, but also waste a lot of time on registration queue, waiting queue and payment queue, thus, increasing your time and money cost. Moreover, the actual situation of the hospital is that the medical staff who give you optometry is not necessarily a doctor specializing in optometry, but usually an ophthalmic technician, resident, and in some hospitals even a nurse in optometry, which is actually difficult to guarantee the quality. Secondly, not all ophthalmologists are experts in ophthalmic optometry, nowadays medical progress, ophthalmology division of labor is getting more and more fine, the bigger the hospital, the more fine the ophthalmologist’s specialty division of labor, such as cataract specialty, glaucoma specialty, fundus disease specialty, optometry specialty, etc. If an ophthalmologist claims to be an ophthalmology all-round specialist, what eye disease can see, what eye surgery can do, then, in If an ophthalmologist claims to be an all-round ophthalmologist who can see all kinds of eye diseases and perform all kinds of eye surgery, then please put a big question mark in your mind before looking for this specialist. After a few years of residency training in ophthalmology, ophthalmologists will generally choose a specialty area of ophthalmology to focus on according to their personal interests and departmental situation. Most patients do not necessarily know every doctor’s specialty well. Maybe the specialist who sees you is a cataract or fundus specialist, but this specialist may know a little bit about optometry, but he or she will not perform a standardized optometric examination and write a correct prescription, let alone instruct you on how many refractive index lenses you should have, what the distance between the lenses and your eyes should be, and so on. Only a doctor specializing in optometry can give you truly professional guidance on optometry and such. Other doctors will not only not be able to guide you properly, but may mislead you because of their professional limitations. There is an example: an ophthalmologist asked a patient to go to an optician to get a pair of “old-fashioned progressive lenses”, and the optician explained to the patient that there are hard and soft designs of progressive lenses, and that there are different brands of generation 1, generation 2, generation 3, etc., so I don’t know which “old-fashioned progressive lenses” are. “This patient, out of the conviction of the ophthalmologist, insisted on the glasses called “old-style progressive lenses”, leaving the dispensing staff at a loss, and this example shows that the level of optometry of some ophthalmologists is not as good as that of the optician. Once again, some ophthalmologists are most likely to make the mistake of “headaches, foot pains,” the lack of overall human cognition, always regard people as a separate parts, organs, regardless of the “human” is an organic combination of these organs, the diagnosis of Diagnostic optometry is a refractive measurement of a single organ, the “eye”, from the point of view of disease, and the result of such a measurement is not necessarily the prescription that the patient really needs; the final prescription requires the optometrist to go through many tests and repeatedly communicate with the patient and make adjustments, and finally The final prescription requires the optometrist to go through many tests, communicate with the patient, and make adjustments to achieve the three main goals of optometry: the clearest vision, the most comfortable use of the eyes, and the longest lasting reading. There was an ophthalmologist who subjectively forced an old man in his sixties who had never worn glasses to wear 600-degree astigmatism glasses based on the optometry results, ignoring the fact that the old man’s vision only improved from 0.1 to 0.2 when he wore the astigmatism glasses, and that after wearing the glasses the old man was dizzy and had a distorted vision and couldn’t walk, and in the face of the old man’s complaints, the expert’s statement was: Your eyes are that high, you have to adapt to these glasses! These glasses! It is a common practice of many ophthalmologists to let the eyes adapt to the glasses. These obvious deviations from common sense optometry actually happen every day, and a truly professional optometrist can see the error at a glance, but as an ordinary consumer, if you encounter such a situation, you can also see the way? Ordinary consumers, originally because they do not have professional optometric knowledge to seek help from experts in hospitals; but because of the serious asymmetry of medical information, perhaps you pay more time, more money to the hospital optometry, in exchange for the results have serious errors and you do not know, so the damage to eye health is actually greater than your general optician’s optometry errors, because in the optician’s optometry, there are Any discomfort you can still communicate with the optometrist and dispensing personnel and get a solution, while in the hospital optometry, there will often be a big store bullying things; problems doctor is not necessarily willing to find the cause from their own (perhaps because of the limitations of the knowledge level, the doctor simply can not find the problem), so delay, blame, forced, many consumers can only eventually admit their own bad luck, and let it go. The most harmful thing is that when you have the wrong pair of glasses, you can’t feel any problem because of your own adaptability, but the long-term damage to your eyes is serious and irreversible. And, many hospitals and even tertiary hospitals do not have a comprehensive optometry, or only the comprehensive optometry as a decoration, in the modern era of optometry, skilled use of comprehensive optometry is the basis of accurate optometry, only the use of comprehensive optometry can do twenty to thirty steps of comprehensive testing, it is difficult to imagine not using comprehensive optometry can be a good light test. Many consumers may have encountered such a situation, that is, a hospital and another hospital on the same patient’s diagnosis, treatment is not the same, and even the same hospital different doctors say different, which also fully reflects the difference in the level of professional knowledge of doctors. As a consumer, if you must go to the hospital optometry, the best way is: first, do not believe in experts, second, first ask whether the doctor at your service is a doctor of optometry, third, to see whether the comprehensive optometry optometry, fourth, the steps of optometry is a few simple steps or 20 or 30 steps. This is the basic guarantee of accurate optometry. Finally, I remind you that optometry is a comprehensive discipline that includes ophthalmology, optometry and opticianry, most doctors in hospitals can only do eye examinations and simple optometry for you, and cannot provide you with professional optometry and opticianry guidance, optometry in hospitals and then opticians have actually artificially cut off the professionalism and continuity of optometry, and if any problems arise, there may be no way to complain. If there is any problem, there may be no way to file a complaint, the doctor and the optician pass the buck to each other, few of them really get a proper solution, and ultimately the victim is the consumer. Therefore, finding a truly professional optician and having an optometrist to examine your eyes and guide you with your glasses is the smartest choice for you to get a pair of glasses with confidence.
