Abstract:
The standard of care expected of optometrists continues to be defined by the courts. Misdiagnosis of ocular disease and liability for injuries caused by ophthalmic products remain the leading causes of litigation. Documentation of findings, warnings, and key management decisions is an essential aspect of clinical practice and must not be neglected by clinicians.
