Support draft regulations as presented
 

I support the draft regulations as presented without change!

Optometrist's are trained and qualified to perform these procedures, and the draft regulations have been prepared with input from a regulatory advisory panel that includes both Optometry and Ophthalmology experts in the field. Our patients are fully protected and will benefit from increased access to these procedures using the current language.

Thank you!
