They will also apply other competencies defined by the Optometry Council of Australia and New Zealand (OCANZ) including diagnosis, patient management and recording of clinical data. They will explore in more detail legal and ethical issues drawn from the problem-based learning cases presented in HMO303 and gain knowledge and skills in professional practice associated with the cases. Finally they will consider in more detail the public and population health implications in identifying and managing the conditions presented in the cases. -- Course Website
