Provides that the practice of optometry shall include the use of injectable agents and surgical procedures for certain purposes

Summary

The measure expands the scope of optometry in Missouri to include injectable drugs and a defined set of surgical procedures, provided the optometrist completes a 32‑hour certification program. It lists many eye‑related services that remain allowed, and it explicitly excludes major intra‑ocular surgeries and laser treatments. The bill failed to pass.
