Reflection:

No, I would not like to become an optometrist, as it does not interest me. As I said before this job doesn't seem that much interesting to me. Also if you make a mistake you can cost someone their sight, give them the wrong medication, vision improving aids (glasses, contact lenses, etc.). Although they do make a good amount of money, the job is just simply not interesting, and I can end up making people's sight worst instead of helping it by accident. Those are the reasons why I would nt like to become a optometrist
