The way I see it if I want a prescription for lenses or glasses filled an Optician is the one to see, if I need a prescription adjustment for eye glasses the Optometrist is the professional to see, and if I have a physiological concern with my eyes, I will be going straight to an eye Doctor (Ophthalmologist)
When my mom had a detached retina her optometrist said go home and when it gets worse go to emergency at the hospital (horrible advice) :/ I made an appointment for her with the best ophthalmologist I knew at the time for the next day, the following week she had the surgery and her vision problem was successfully treated. ymmv.
