If you research the changes in optometry in the last 20 years, you will see the numerous advancements that have been made in the field. You may have been an Optometrist during these improvements, and if so, you can describe the changes you have seen during your career. If you are a newer Optometrist, you may not have directly witnessed the improvements, but you most likely have learned about them. The interviewer wants to hear that you are aware of the optometry improvements and recognize the changes that have been made.

"I have only worked as an Optometrist for five years, but I am aware of how many improvements have been made in this field over the last 20 years. There have been major improvements in glasses and lenses, contacts, and refractive surgery. In my opinion, diagnostic tools and technology have been the greatest improvement in the optometry field."
