Non-regulated practice of optometry


As depicted in this cartoon from Optometry Today, January-March 1974 issue, optometrists have been struggling for getting the profession recognized in a country where anyone can open an optical shop without training or registration. Are the authorities listening and will they care to see to the redressal of the plight of our people receiving inadequate vision care services from non-qualified providers?
