CMA Files Suit Over Optometrists' Scope of Practice
The California Medical Association and the California Academy of Eye Physicians and Surgeons object to new rules that allow optometrists to treat glaucoma.
Their arguments were 100% correct - 50 years ago. Now it just makes you look like an ignorant fool to say that optometrists can go through school without ever treating a single glaucoma patient. Sounds like someone sees a legitimate hazard. To their paycheck.
