Comment Period | Ended on 10/25/2024 |
Doctors of optometry are well-trained and agree with being certified in laser procedures before performing them on patients. The certification outlined in the regulations are more than adequate since we already have extensive training in glaucoma, cataracts, and other diseases and the skills to perform the procedures. Please support the optometry regulations as presented. Shannon Franklin, OD
