my full equipment kits for optometry school + prices

[@Jess3397]

I had no idea how much stuff I was going to have to buy when I started optometry school, I thought it was just a lens kit and BIO. I would have loved to see this before I started at PCO last August. And for anyone stressing about buying diagnostic kits/BIO in my experience what feels comfortable in your hand or on your head is your best bet!

[@KhanhTon]

Completely agree! Comfort is the best and the rest is up to skills/practice! I hope you're killing optometry school :)

The glass you picked after the stethoscope, that you had no idea about what it is, it’s a cross cylinder ( + and - ). You can measure the cilinder with it on the lensholder! :) Nice video!

[@KhanhTon]

Nice!! Thanks for letting me know! 😃 We’ve never used it before

[@nadineshihabeddin8710]

So helpful! I could've really used this video when I first started optometry school. Glad you made it!

[@KhanhTon]

Aww thank you 😭❤️

[@AlexRamos-qc2rt]

Did you get grants and financial aid for optometry school and/or the supplies you needed ? It’s so much money 😅

[@KhanhTon]

I pulled out student loans/“financial aid”! Haha

[@brandonlewis2699]

Do you have to pay it all yourself or does financial aid help some

[@KhanhTon]

Student loans!

[@ake-il-g_1383]

Can I ask where you bought the lens set from?? like what is the brand/company? I'm from Australia and I love the American optometry equipment set so much better! I think it's Heine, but I don't seem to find it on the Heine website :

In Viet Nam, the 1st year optometry student still needn't buy any equipment. Because we haven't learned about it yet :> but I hope I will be learnt soon.

[@KhanhTon]

I hope you do!!☺️

[@taeanafisher5513]

Do you go to UHCO? I start my first year there next fall (: love your channel!

[@KhanhTon]

I do!! Can’t wait to see you here! Welcome to the family ☺️✨

Hello, this was very interesting! Out of curiosity, what does an optometrist use a stethoscope for?

[@KhanhTon]

Blood pressure!

[@NotAGamersDey]

What’s the average optometry school tuition?

[@KhanhTon]

Check out my video on cost of optometry school! 🤓

[@lilgr0ck]

Have you used everything in your 2 kits? Or have there been some things that you have never used?

[@KhanhTon]

Other than the ones I’ve mentioned in the video that I’ve never used, we use all of them for different clinics like peds/ODmed/FPS

[@jenniferb4582]

What would you use the stethoscope for?

[@KhanhTon]

Checking blood pressure! We do it for every new patient and it's more accurate than automatic ones!
