Ophthalmologists are the only eye doctors trained to perform laser eye surgery. They went to medical school just like brain and heart surgeons. Trust your eyes to an eye surgeon—an ophthalmologist. No shortcuts.
A bill has been introduced across the country like this and failed in California last year because people know better. Requesting optometrists the ability to perform laser eye surgery without attending medical school is wrong. No shortcuts. #NewMexico The University of New Mexico School of Medicine ABQjournal Albuquerque The Magazine #albuquerque #Santafe
Let’s raise the standards for eye surgery. New Mexicans deserve to have the most experienced doctor performing their laser eye surgery (Ophthalmologists).
No shortcuts. Surgeons attend medical school. Ophthalmologists attend medical school just like heart and brain surgeons.
