optometry

Clinical space where doctors measure the vision of patients and prescribe corrections.

An optometry office is a medical clinic where optometrists and professional medical staff measure the visual accuity and of patients, diagnose defects or weaknesses in vision, and prescribe corrective measures, such as eyeglasses, contact lenses, or laser surgery.

This usage refers strictly to medical clinic facilities. Optometrists often work stores that sell glasses and contact lenses; in this case the usage should be listed as an eyewear store rather than an optometry clinic. This should not be confused with ophthamology, which focuses on treatment of eye-related ailments.
