🏥 Health
Kent-based optometrist Dr. Jennifer Vincent said SB 36 would let doctors perform three in-office laser procedures and remove benign eyelid lesions (for cysts and skin tags) to ease delays in accessing eye care.
The bill is expected to improve patient care and help keep skilled professionals in Ohio (by providing more timely treatment options).
