Why did you become a optometrist?

When I was a kid, I had an eye injury while I was doing gymnastics and I ended up going to the eye doctor for the first time. I thought everything about the eye was so cool, and when I finished high school I got a job working for an optometrist. I learned a lot about being an eye doctor and decided to continue with my schooling so I could become an optometrist. I’ve always wanted to have a job where I could help people, and I think one of the coolest jobs is being able to help people see better.
