Nobody has said that optomotrists only perform eye exams. In fact, in my post above, I specifically noted that both can treat "eye problems." That doesn't change the fact that optomotrists are not medical doctors, cannot perform surgery, and don't handle complicated issues such as detached retinas or diseases of the eye.

It's sort of misleading. They state that they do "co-management" of refractive surgery. IOW, they do an initial evaluation and then refer you to a surgeon (an ophthalmologist) somewhere else. They then handle post-operative issues.

By doing this, they get a referral fee as well as fees for handling the non-surgical aspects of the patient's care. If it was me, I'd rather have the surgeon do the pre-operative tests and be responsible for the post-operative care. That's why I usually go to ophthamologists rather than optometrists.
