Read my comparison to Lincoln's style of Presidency and the way we treat patients for refractive surgery.

Organized in 2002 and chartered in 2004, the OCRT is optometry’s voice in the field of refractive surgery and other technologies designed to alter the refractive status of the human eye. Our mission is to bring together optometrists and researchers with an interest in refractive technologies, providing a forum for education and interaction. We have sponsored a full-day refractive symposium immediately preceding the American Academy of Optometry meeting for the past several years.
Optometric involvement in refractive technology grows by the day. A subset of optometry is involved on a day-to-day basis as the primary focus of our practices. OCRT gives us a forum for discussion and allows us to present ourselves as the key players in supporting patients interested in altering their refractive status. OCRT and its members can then act as a resource for our colleagues who are not directly involved in refractive surgical care, but whose patients seek such care.
To advance the art and science of refractive technology and the knowledge and skills of optometrists participating in refractive technology as well as provide clinical and practice management education to optometrists through various forms of communication and forums.
