I support optometrist having the ability to provide a service that is greatly lacking in our community. Optometrist not only have 4 years of training during school, are required to take a laser course during their years of training, but also have the opportunity to have an extra year of training during a Residency. When the law is passed, optometrist will be required to go through training before performing such procedures, we will not perform them without training and going through certificates.
That being said, I am in support of Optometrist having the ability to help the community.
