Please continue to support the laser regulations for Virginia as they stand. They were already approved by input from optometry and ophthalmology. We do not need to re-invent the wheel on this issue. Optometrists have already been very successful in using lasers in 12 other states. There is absolutely no reason to trust the education and certification of optometrists in using lasers in the great state of Virginia. It is prudent and appropriate to recognize the successful education and continued training of Optometrists.
