EYE CARE CONTROVERSIES: STRUGGLE AMONG EYE CARE PROFESSIONS
While optometrists are sparring with ophthalmologists on the right to administer dilating drugs, they are also arguing with opticians about the right to fit contact lenses. There is nothing in most state regulations to prevent an optician from fitting contacts. Many state opticians’ licensing examinations include whole sections on contact lenses. Some opticians don’t choose to fit contacts and have asked that the lens part of the test be reserved for those practitioners who choose to go into the field. That way, an optician failing the contact lens portion, but not the eyeglass portion, of the test won’t have been deprived from taking a job or opening in an optical shop where eyeglasses are manufactured and sold.
In contrast, optometrists think that opticians do not have the training to fit hard and soft lenses directly on the eye. They say that all opticians should be prevented from doing the detailed work. They suggest that of the soft contact lenses alone, with more than two dozen manufacturers making them in a dizzying variety of shapes, widths, thicknesses, and materials, more knowledge is needed than available to the less-trained opticians. Some optometrists say, “Opticians don’t know which end is up” about contacts. Dr. Ross said, in referring to opticians fitting contact lenses, “It is a violation of the laws of medicine and optometry?
But opticians who do choose to fit contact lenses point to their success with patients. They question the economic motives of the optometrists’ efforts to restrict opticians’ practices. ItЂ™s strictly a matter of greed, they declare. An optician who asked not to be named said, “A optometrist has a major stake in contacts, but the ophthalmologist can prescribe them too. It hurts the optometrist’s business to have the job handled by the ophthalmologist and the optician. It cuts him out.” In some cases, the ophthalmologist prescribes the correction and the optician manufactures and sells it. The optometrist is like a
barnacle on a boat slowing down the patient’s passage to better sight. Opticians agree among themselves that the optometrist appears to be an unnecessary professional addition.
There is more politics mixed up with money and lenses. Ophthalmologists don’t usually sell eyeglasses and contact lenses, so they declare themselves above the conflict between eye care professionals and obvious economic interests where lenses are sold. Optometrists point out that this attitude smacks of cover-up.
For instance, optometrists claim they do not push unneeded lenses on patients, even though they sell the products. The ophthalmologists doubt this statement, Optometrists, in turn, claim that some ophthalmologists art not above making a profit on lenses, because they do, in fact, have affiliations with lens stores or opticians. Some eye surgeons have lens dispensing sections right in their offices, and they are not entirely truthful about not profiting from the sale of visual aids.
Finally, the opticians routinely complain that some ophthalmologists and optometrists are slow to furnish prescriptions to other specialists when it becomes clear the patient is going to shop around for the eye care products.
This interprofessional infighting goes on among opticians, optometrists, and ophthalmologists in almost every community in the United States. There is little love lost among any of them. Ophthalmologists are concerned about an ongoing power grab at the top rungs of the eye care ladder by optometrists. Optometrists are trying to get maximum mileage out of their training so as to enhance their income by an increased sale of services. With ever-present political resistance from both professions, vision-impaired people become the losers.
