Barry, You beat me to it...

I was going to post --- " What in the world does ophthalmic optical engineering have to with opticianry?" Answer=Nothing Why do people want it to? So they can pretend that opticianry requires an advanced form of intellegence. Same as those that think opticianry has something to do with the medical field. Basic math, common sense, personality, light mechanical skill, an eye for symmetry, fashion and MANNERS. That is about it folks. Get over it. Over education does not make a profession out of thin air. Making up complicated and irrelevant crap to learn to try to justify a slowly dieing profession will not save it.
