OPTOM 499-A-E W,S Comprehensive Examinations
in Anatomy and Physiology, Pathology and Pharmacology, Physiological Optics, Optometrical Optics, and Optometry. Graduation in Optometry is contingent upon successful completion of these comprehensive examinations involving oral, written and clinical applications of optometry.
