Getting started in a dynamic field like vision care can be intimidating and daunting for someone just getting started with little to no experience.

Though it isn’t difficult to find dozens of resources dedicated to training vision care staff, most fail to deliver adequate results due to being too complicated, too lengthy or quick simply too boring.

The Vision Care Primer is aimed at providing accurate, up to date information while limiting the overwhelming medical jargon and lengthy chapters.

The main goal of this resource is to rapidly train new staff members to be effective in Optometric practices or Optical stores in as little as a few days. Students will be guided through important concepts such as:

  • Recognizing the roles and responsibilities of different Eye Care Professionals,
  • Understanding the basics behind ocular anatomy,
  • Guiding patients through the multiple steps of the comprehensive exam,
  • Understanding and interpreting the vision prescription,
  • Techniques required to help patients make informed eyewear choices,
Whether you are an employer looking for an effective no hassle training manual for new hires, or a new employee who wants to impress your colleagues with your rapid progress, The Vision Care Primer is the resource you need to succeed!

Through Training and Education, my passion for the Eye Care Industry has no limits!

Over the past decade I have had the opportunity to work in Opticianry, Optometry, as well as Ophthalmology. I have made it my mission to learn, observe and objectively study the various training needs within the multiple practices I have been blessed to be part of.

In 2018 I founded ModernOptician.com; an online ophthalmic training platform dedicated to my lifelong pursuit: to propel Opticianry into the future and ensure its survival. Since then I have written and published 8 educational books, as well as a number of online courses designed specifically to help aspiring Opticians realize their goals.

At Modern Optician our primary philosophy is that our profession must adapt and pivot to the changing world around it. Opticians must embrace the idea of adopting more clinical roles as the scope of practice of Opticianry begins to align itself with the more clinical settings of Optometry and Ophthalmology. Our goal is to be the primary source of educational material which will help facilitate this change!

We also pride ourselves in advocacy for support staff training and encouraging our unlicensed colleagues to pursue a dynamic career in Opticianry. For years, I have been trying to convey how low the barriers of entry are for anybody to jump into Opticianry from scratch! My writing and advocacy all points to this simple fact: any passionate and dedicated individual can reap the benefits of this field in a short period of time with a minimal amount of financial investment!

I hope to be the one who helps you set and achieve your goals in the future!
