Scientific paper

Development of optometry in western countries was studied on a viewpoint of the history of science. It was revealed that optometry had been formed on the basis of optics, a branch of physics, to which biomedical study was added. Optometry can be defined as a pioneering interdisciplinary field of study and as biomedical physics of the 19th century. It is pointed out that population-geographic factors have affected on the development of optometry in the U. S. A. and Australia. European development model is suggested for a strategy for the next-generation development of Korean optometry, rather than American model.
