Hello Aspirant,

As you have mentioned that you have completed 4 year course for Optometrist so it seems that you have completed only Bachelor's program and with completion of only Bachelor's program you are not eligible to put Dr. in front of your name. You need to do either M.S./M.Phil./Ph.D/OD to become eligible for setting up Dr. in front of your name.

But still with your Bachelor's program you can make your career as :-

  • Customer Care Associate
  • Private Practitioner
  • Professor
  • Trainee Optometrist
  • Vision Consultant

I hope this information helps you.

Good Luck!!
