Support In-office lasers by doctors of optometry
 

Please support regulations as presented without any changes.  Optometrists are trained and certified to perform laser procedures, increasing access for patients.

I myself have undergone the certification process and look forward to the chance to practice to the full extent of my education.

 

Thank you
