I've checked 4 optometry degrees so far, and the standard entry requirements are 2 A Levels in STEM subjects. Some don't consider BTECs.
There are degrees where you could do a foundation year with what you have, but I'd consider doing a couple of A Levels in STEM based subjects instead.

Some of the universities that would consider BTEC are:

https://www.bradford.ac.uk/courses/ug/optometry-bsc/ - need a science A Level as well
