Optometry Bill Debated in Legislature Over Registration

A proposed measure would require optometrists to register with county clerks, form a state board, and display certificates. Applicants must complete two years study or a course in an approved school, with a 15 dollar fee for exam and certificate. Some doctors fear public safety risks and argue optometry’s ties to medicine. The debate includes opposition from Dr. McKnight and Dr. Ring, while Yale observers urge medical breadth in training. In Boston, about 50 Daughters of the Revolution met Governor Draper for a brief reception.
