Why do we see double? An Introduction to Orthoptics
In this detailed Orthoptics taster session, you'll learn what the role of an orthoptist in eye care entails and what studying the programme at the University of Sheffield is like.
We'll explore how the eyes work together and why, sometimes, they don't and why this might happen.
You'll hear from current Orthoptics students and staff and have the chance to ask any question you have.
