What do Ophthalmic Registered Nurses do?
Ophthalmic Registered Nurses provide specialized care to patients with eye conditions and injuries, performing duties such as conducting vision tests, assisting with eye exams and surgeries, administering medications, and educating patients on eye health and treatment plans.
They work in hospitals, clinics, and ophthalmology practices to care for patients with diseases such as glaucoma and macular degeneration, manage post-operative recovery, and assist with vision correction needs.
What they do
Patient Assessment: Conduct initial eye screenings, record patient medical histories, perform vision tests, and assist with physical examinations to identify ocular symptoms and underlying health issues.
Treatment and Care: Administer eye drops and other medications, provide post-operative care for patients undergoing eye surgery, assist in performing minor procedures, and help fit patients for corrective lenses and contact lenses.
Surgical Assistance: Collaborate closely with ophthalmologists to prepare patients for eye surgeries and provide support during the surgical procedures themselves.
Patient and Family Education: Educate patients on their eye conditions, treatment plans, proper eye care techniques (like contact lens use), and lifestyle modifications to promote better eye health.
Administrative Tasks: Manage patient records, oversee clinic organization, and monitor medical equipment to ensure optimal functioning.
Environment
