Introduction

We rely heavily on our five senses to navigate life: touch, taste, smell, hearing and sight. Each of these senses plays a vital role in our day-to-day lives. Problems with eyesight can have a profound impact on an individual's life. Through optometry, many vision problems and eye diseases can be corrected or managed, restoring sight to people from all walks of life.

Optometrists diagnose vision problems, eye diseases and other eye health issues. These highly skilled professionals correct poor vision and manage or slow degenerative eye diseases with corrective lenses, optical aids, contact lenses and therapy or medication.

When you enrol in the Bachelor of Vision Science/Master of Clinical Optometry, you'll work collaboratively with peers from a range of disciplines to develop essential technical and professional skills to thrive in your future career.

The Bachelor of Vision Science/Master of Clinical Optometry will provide you with the clinical skills and training required to gain registration to practise optometry. It combines the theoretical discipline of vision science with the clinical expertise of primary eye care.

These two globally recognised UNSW degrees will see you build a degree that's tailored to your interests in a place that values your passions, purpose and potential.
