I'm Going Back To School & I Just Had Eye Surgery - What Did I Do? 😳

Hey Babe 👋🏻 I'm 46 years old, who goes back to school for fun?!?!

Last night, as I was going to bed, I had a brief thought: "Who goes back to school just for fun?"

I'm both thrilled and nervous about this. Last night, as I was reviewing the textbook, I couldn't help but wonder how I'll be able to read and comprehend all of this after undergoing major eye surgery.

Rather than panicking, I embraced my Visual Impaired community and discovered a valuable resource for book reading! I am absolutely thrilled about this. It will greatly assist me in enhancing my learning and comprehension abilities. I truly wish I had access to such resources during my teenage years.

Feel free to contact me through my social media if you're interested in the book source!

So wish me luck - I'm going back to school 🎓

❤️ Love you so big,
~Jennie

Law of Optometry w/ Dr. Marquardt

Dr. Terry T. Marquardt, OD practiced optometry during a time when developments in medicine, treatment techniques, and changes in the law gave optometrists a greater responsibility for treating eye disease and vision correction. Prior to the 1970s, people living in rural areas and smaller towns of the United States did not have access to eye care for eye infections and eye injuries. The law required ophthalmologists to treat eye infections and eye injuries. People had to travel to big cities where ophthalmologists were located. The healthcare system for the eye was inefficient. People had to travel 100 miles to get treatment for infections and minor surgical procedures. State laws expanded the type of care, treatment, and medicine optometrists were licensed to provide to patients, and optometry schools expanded education and training for that care, treatment, and medicine. Now, ophthalmologist are specialty trained eye surgeons, optometrist are medically trained eye doctors, and opticians are like pharmacists who fills the prescriptions. In New Mexico, where Dr. Terry T. Marquardt, OD focused his optometry practice, major changes in the law were as follows: 1977, Diagnostic Pharmaceutical Legislation, Signed by Governor Apodaca 1985, Therapeutic Pharmaceutical Legislation, Signed by Governor Anaya 1995, Oral Pharmaceutical Legislation – Schedule III-V with some restrictions, Signed by Governor Johnson 1997, SB 277, Laser Legislation passed by the New Mexico House of Representatives and the New Mexico Senate, but Vetoed by Governor Johnson 2003, HB 248, Contact Lens Release Legislation, Signed by Governor Richardson 2007, SB 367, Minor Surgical Procedures & Injections Legislation, Signed by Governor Richardson 2015, SB 367, Hydrocodone Schedule II, No restriction on pharmaceuticals Schedules III-V, Enable the New Mexico Board of Optometry to issue declaratory rulings on what constitutes the scope of practice of optometry in accordance with the Optometry Act, Signed by Governor Martinez 2017, HB 364, Patient Protection Legislation, Prohibiting Online Eye Exam, Requiring In-Person Eye Exams, Vetoed by Governor Martinez 2019, HB 242, Patient Protection Legislation, Prohibiting Online Eye Exam, Requiring In-Person Eye Exams, Signed by Governor Lujan Grisham
