the State Legislature. Its mission to safeguard the health, safety, and
welfare of Tennesseans by requiring that all who practice optometry within
this state is qualified. The Board interprets the laws, rules, and
regulations to determine the appropriate standards of practice in an
effort to ensure the highest degree of professional conduct. The Board is

appropriate education and successfully completed required examinations.
