Optometry is a healthcare profession concerned with examination, diagnosis and treatment of the human visual system. In our ageing population, the demand for eye care is expected to increase, and optometrists are ideally placed to help meet this demand. The programme is based on both fundamental academic sciences as well as detailed clinical and practical studies. The emphasis is very much on the optometric service to patients.

The University Master's Degree in Research in Vision Sciences (MICCV) is an inter-university degree, aimed at university research and teaching training, which is the first step towards a doctoral thesis.
