Which of the following are required to become an optometrist?

Answer
A
MD degree

Doctor of Optometry (OD) degree

Explanation

Optometrists complete a Doctor of Optometry (OD) degree, typically after undergraduate study, and must meet the licensing requirements where they practice. An MD degree is for physicians, while a PhD is a research degree and is not required to become an optometrist. Therefore, the correct choice is “Doctor of Optometry (OD) degree.”
