Help allow Optometrists in Puerto Rico to prescribe therapeutic pharmaceutical agents!

Created by O.N. on October 10, 2011

The U.S. Commonwealth of Puerto Rico is the last and only jurisdiction of the United States of America where licensed Doctors of Optometry are not allowed to use therapeutic pharmaceutical agents for the treatment of ocular health conditions in their patients. The government of Puerto Rico, by not allowing this legislation to be successful, is systematically discriminating against their own citizens and purposely allowing a substandard of care.
