Welcome to ArkEyeMDs.org, the virtual home
of Arkansas Eye MDs.
* Understanding Differences
Among Eye Care Professionals *
A survey released in November 2005 by the Washington,
DC-based National Consumers League (NCL) found that many people
are uncertain about the differences among various eye care providers
and the services they perform.
A description of Ophthalmologists, Opticians and
Optometrists can be found on the Glaucoma
Research Foundation website.
The study itself can also be found online at the
National
Consumer League's website.
