Having a very close friend who is an optician, I can say with confidence that, at least in Zild, the UK and Oz, an optician is NOT a doctor, of any sort. In these countries, an optician is the eye equivalent of a pharmacist, the person who fills a prescription written by a optometrist or an opthalmologist. Of the three, only an opthalmologist is an M.D. Here in Zild there is an effort being made to change the law to allow opticians to write prescriptions as well as merely dispensing them. noho ora mai http://maxqnzs.com/References.html Copy Link to Clipboard Share Post on Facebook Share Post on Twitter Re: So many words... #128183 05/08/04 10:56 PM Joined: Mar 2000 Posts: 11,613 Louisville, Kentucky Jackie Carpal Tunnel Jackie Carpal Tunnel Joined: Mar 2000 Posts: 11,613 Louisville, Kentucky Forgive ME, gonoldothrond, but I could cheerfully strangle you at the moment for making me choose so few among so many!
