When I took labor economics many years ago, dentistry was the second
highest paying career, considering the time value of money.
Construction work was number one.

Hello,

What is 'Kudos', please?

Does it mean points?

For refference
There is things like that:
"Professor of Optometry Director of Research and Graduate Studies."
"Journal of Optometry."

Everybody can have endless debates about terminology here .
Journal of Optometry not going to change name.
Optometry is a branch of Visual Science

Neuro opththalmologists can also be researchers, long training. Don't
know how it pays.

Hello,

No, optometry and ophthalmology are both medical professions.

The science line is called 'visual science'.

I know, I thought the same as you too.
