I am currently an ABO certified optician, and looking to go in a slightly different direction with my career...

I am confused though about the different types of ophthalmic assisting possibilities, it seems like there is 4 different types of assistants???

Ophthalmic Assistant
Ophthalmic Clinical Assistant
Ophthalmic Technician
Ophthalmic Technologist

does anyone know the differences? is there an order to them- do you have to start with one to get to the next? i am so confused!

where can i find literature to study?
