The Complete Optometric Assistant

Aspiring assistants take note. Karen Clegg enthuses about a book for frontline staff which should occupy a quite unique place on the bookshelf

Sarah Morgan's early experiences as an optical assistant and later in managing and training staff in a busy practice provided the impetus for writing this book. The aim of The Complete Optometric Assistant is to offer optical assistants a 'core foundation' of knowledge on which to build as they develop in their role.

Friendly format

The book is divided into eight main sections, further broken down into sub-sections. The format of each sub-section is exceptionally user-friendly and includes:

Key topics

Each of the eight sections is devoted to a key topic, the opening topic being 'Staff in eye care'. This sets the scene in terms of the role of the optical assistant, other roles within the eye care profession whether it be in practice, hospitals or industry and basic induction topics relevant to those working in a retail practice.
