§ 3166 Optometric Corporation Professional Conduct

Key Takeaways

  • •An optometric corporation must follow all the rules that regular optometrists follow.
  • •If the corporation does something wrong or doesn't do something it should, it's like the corporation is behaving badly, just like a person would.
  • •The corporation has to obey the same laws and rules as a licensed optometrist.

Example

An optometric corporation doesn't clean its tools properly between patients.

This is bad because a regular optometrist would get in trouble for not cleaning tools. The corporation can get in trouble too, just like a person would.
