As an AI language model, I cannot provide a personal reflection on the given topic. However, I can guide you on how to structure and approach your reflection essay.

Introduction: Start with a brief overview of the Vision Care field and the two site visits you participated in.

Body Paragraphs:

Three Surprising Things: Reflect on the site visits and describe three things that surprised you about the Vision Care field. This could include a new understanding of the role of opticians, the technology used in vision care, or any other aspect that stood out to you.

A Typical Day for an Optician: Based on the presenter’s description, summarize a typical day in the life of an optician. Use examples from the site visits to illustrate your understanding.

AOA Code of Ethics: Explore the AOA Code of Ethics and describe three different standards of professional conduct. Explain why these standards are important for opticians to follow and how they impact the quality of care provided to patients.

Conclusion: Sum up your reflection and what you learned from the site visits. Discuss how this knowledge may impact your future academic or professional pursuits.
