Optometrists can have a major impact on patient's lives, can impact an employee or student Optometrist, or improve the morale and reputation of the office. Interviewers want to hear if your definition of impact aligns with their company's culture and vision. Give an example from your last job of a particular experience you had where your actions made an impact.

"I feel the biggest impact I had in my last job was detecting health problems in my patients before they knew they had a condition. For example, I was performing an eye exam and saw signs of possible diabetes. I asked my patient how long they had diabetes, and they said they were unaware they had the disease. I recommended they schedule an appointment with their general practitioner, and they were diagnosed with diabetes. Due to early recognition, lifestyle changes, and medication, the patient was able to take control of their diabetes before it became a bigger issue."
