    Now I am studying A level. My subjects combination are Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Further Mathematics. Could I take optometry course after A level?

    Yeh, quite easily, biology is only a requirement if you wish to study at manchester - but I wouldn't because the course isn't great and consists of PBL!

    If you look here it gives you the list of unis who offer this subject. From there, you can look at what A levels each uni prefers.
