Gulf Optometry Licensing Mock Test (DHA, DOH, SCFHS, QCHP): 50 MCQs with Explanations

Last updated: November 2026

A 50-question practice test for optometrists preparing for licensing exams in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain.

  • Format: four options, single best answer, 50 minutes.
  • Coverage: Refraction and transposition, contact lenses, binocular vision, pharmacology, glaucoma, retina, cornea, low vision, dispensing, paediatrics and professional practice.
  • After each answer: an explanation, a practical pearl and a link to the page that teaches the topic.

These are original practice questions written for revision; they are not questions from any health authority. Each authority sets its own number of questions, time and pass mark. For eligibility and exam steps, see optometry exams abroad.

After the test

List the topics you got wrong, open each linked page, and retake the test after a week. Try the other optometry mocks: B.Optom, NBEO-style, OCANZ-style and Gulf licensing.
