Optician Optometry Training in Marrakech

The optician optometrist is a highly specialized professional, playing a key role in vision care.

Depending on their chosen orientation, the professional may focus more on the “optician” side or the “optometrist” side.

Optics is a highly technical profession, so the optician must stay attentive to technological innovations.

It also connects to science, commerce and the social dimension: welcoming clients, listening, building trust and understanding their needs.

The optician therefore integrates all facets of the job—this is a major strength.

They guide clients in choosing frames and lens types; design, deliver and verify visual correction equipment and ensure maintenance.

Optometry is both art and science: science because it relies on strong knowledge (anatomy, physiology, biology, mathematics and physics, etc.), and art because it requires clinical sense and the ability to integrate knowledge.

The optometrist aims to provide each client with the clearest, most effective and most comfortable vision possible, and participates in prevention, especially for younger people.

The optician works between the store (reception and advice) and the workshop (preparing glasses). Schedules follow store opening hours, sometimes with overtime depending on the structure.

Precision, pedagogy, meticulousness and a commercial mindset are essential. The optician advises, performs assembly operations, follows trends and technology, and takes care of store presentation.
