No...I'm an OD. Everybody gets us confused. Think of it this way

The amount of schooling required for an OD, MD,DDS,DC are all the same. However, to work as a family doctor you require another 2 years (I believe) but you are an MD even without the 2 years.

What the [censored]?? This thread totally blows. I went to school for 27 years (including Kindergarten) After college I did ten.

Optometrists treat eye disease in many states because they have a very powerful lobby and create increased scope of practice by legislative fiat.

The "MD" Makes a Difference....
