I have come to the conclusion that I've just about capped out my salary as a Licensed Optician in Virginia. I have bigger salary/career aspirations for my future as I am not getting any younger and it's not getting any cheaper to live in the Northern Virginia area. Does any one who lives in or practices in the Northern Virginia area know where the closest accredited school for optometry would be? What's the best (and quickest) way to become an optometrist? I can't really travel too far to go to school and I certainly can't cut my hours from full time to part time, I need every penny I'm making right now. I figure with being an optician for almost ten years, becoming an optometrist would be the next logical step up to further my career and my earning potential. Any input would be much appreciated on this.
