Authorized drugs

Optometrists are allowed to prescribe certain drugs within the scope of their practice. Vigilance Santé, in collaboration with the Ordre des Optométristes du Québec, has developed app.vigilance.ca/optometrists, to quickly identify drugs that can and cannot be prescribed by optometrists.

A search field can be used to bring up information on a specific drug.
