Refracting like an OD and not an optometry student

The AOSA blog is interesting; nice to get student perspectives on a myriad of topics. Walt

This post is for anyone who still refracts like they taught you in refraction 101 (and not how real practicing OD’s do it). The key is to save time but still be accurate. Another key is to give the patient easy choices. Patients are afraid they are giving the wrong answers and it can be stressful for them, if you always remember their point of view it will make the refraction go smoother.
