Who is right?

[Huxlly]

What is the difference between an optometrist and an optomologist? I am confused about who go to for an eye infection. Someone told me to go to an optometrist, and someone else said an optomologist because they said that optometrist can't prescribe medications. Who is right?

Here are links regarding your question. Gook Luck I would opt to choose the ophthalmologist if you have an infection.
