The WOA has committed to moving forward with opening the Optometric Practice Act to update your scope this year.  We need you active and working for the success of the WOA.
  • The regional chairs will be contacting you to start updating our key person network, keeping you updated on what you need to actively be doing.
The Joint Labor Health Social Services Committee will be looking at the Optometric Practice Act during the interim.  Be watching for updates and action items.
