No...I'm an OD. Everybody gets us confused. Think of it this way
Optician = Pharmacist
Optometrist = Family Doctor
Ophthalmologist (MD) = Surgeon
Optician dispenses the glasses/contacts based on the presciption by the optometrist or ophthalmologist but he's not a "DR". An Optometrist is a "DR" but not an MD....kinda like a dentist or chiropractor.

So which one of these is an OD?
