As a member of the American Optometric Association’s Board of Trustees, I fully support the draft legislation as presented, without changes. Doctors of optometry have safely performed these procedures since the 1990s, with over 146,000 successfully completed to date. Optometric education, training, and certification enable doctors of optometry to safely provide these in-office treatment options, in line with regulatory requirements for two proctored sessions per procedure. The proposed regulations were developed with input from both optometry and other health professions and should be supported as presented.
