Optician

Duties and responsibilities: opticians fit and dispense eye glasses for patients based upon prescriptions written by ophthalmologists or optometrists. Opticians help the customer’s select eye glass frames and then measure their faces so that the correct size of them can be ordered. They also measure the distance between the corneas of the eyes so that the lenses may be correctly fitted in the frames. Some opticians specialize in the fitting of contact lens and also in fitting artificial eye. Opticians may own their own retail store or work for an optical store. Some also work for the optometrists and ophthalmologists who sell glasses.

Average salary: $19,000 - $40,000

Educational requirements: students shouldn’t take high school courses in physics, algebra, mechanical drawing, and even geometry. A high school diploma or GED certificate is needed to begin training as an optician. There are two types of training programs. Students can either complete an approved two year course at an school of optician, or they can complete a approved three year on the job apprenticeship.
