  • Title: The pros and cons of developing additional schools and colleges of optometry.
    Author: Hunter EL.
    Journal: J Am Optom Assoc; 1992 Dec; 63(12):865-6. PubMed ID: 1287068.
    Abstract:
    There are no manpower studies to give hard statistics of the number of practitioners needed now and in the future. We will still be increasing the number of optometrists in the country by maintaining the same course we are on now, and show no need for any new optometric schools or colleges. Yet, the present schools and colleges of optometry may need to expand or contract their entering class size as educational reform changes optometric education.
