Mental Wellbeing and Burnout Among Optometrists and Pre-Registration Optometrists

One in five adults experience declining mental health. A survey in Australia revealed around one in three Australian optometrists report mental wellbeing issues and at least half reported some level of burnout.

This study aims to determine the level of mental wellbeing and burnout amongst UK optometrists and pre-registration optometrists, and to identify potential triggers. The findings will help shape future support and guidance. The survey takes around eight minutes to complete.
