Four optometrists faced allegations of professional misconduct related to inadequate eye examinations, poor record keeping, and improper record storage while participating in a School Vision Care program.

The members pled guilty to the allegations and submitted an Agreed Statement of Facts.

The Discipline Committee accepted a joint submission on penalty, which included a reprimand, a two-week suspension (which could be suspended upon completion of an essay), continuing education requirements, practice inspections, and costs of $5,000 per member.
