There are also some disadvantages in Ophthalmology. You have to do at least four years of college and then more years of medical school and several more years with an internship and residency. Besides these, You must pass a series of medical licensing test that can very pricey.

Both of the fields have great demand. I can not tell you which one is best. You have to think about which one suits you. You have to decide your own. I can only show you the path. Please choose your dream. You must go with the field of your interest. One is eye related and the other one is related to the bones and muscles. Think properly. You will get your answer. You may touch your dream. Go ahead. I wish you all the very best for your upcoming future. You have to think about which you like the most. If you want to work with eye, you should go with Ophthalmology. Otherwise, Orthopedic is a better choice.

Hello Shreyansh,

Optometrists can handle nearly all the medical aspects of ophthalmology. They can prescribe medications and treat eye diseases but they do not perform surgery.

When patients develop cataracts, optometrists can help them navigate the surgical course, and an optometrist practice situation often dictates his or her specific role in patient care.

Hope it helps.

Good Luck!
