In this conversation, Dr. Jeff Michaels discusses the importance of scope of practice and the role of the State Government Relations Committee (SGRC) in advancing optometry. He emphasizes the need for optometrists to build relationships with legislators and educate them about the profession. Dr. Michaels also addresses the issue of subsectioning within the optometry profession and the importance of unity. He highlights the growing awareness among new graduates about scope of practice and the need for continued advocacy. The conversation concludes with a reminder that relationships and education are key to achieving legislative success. Takeaways: Building relationships with legislators is crucial for advancing scope of practice. The optometry profession needs unity and collaboration to overcome subsectioning. New graduates are increasingly aware of the importance of scope of practice. Misleading arguments from ophthalmology must be countered with accurate information. Education and relationship-building should start years in advance of legislative efforts.
