Every optometry school across the United States is training their students to perform these procedures. These procedures use the same skills that optometrists use every single day in their practices. Compilations are inevitably in some cases just as they are when Ophthalmologists perform the procedures. We are already trained to manage and do manage complications that arise from procedures that ophthalmologists have performed so there’s really no reason we shouldn’t be performing these procedures because we are 1. Qualified to do so and 2. Already do manage any possible complications.
