College of Optometry Continuing Education
The Advanced Ocular Therapeutics (AOT) course is a 23-hour certificate course on systemic and injectible medications used in eye care. This course currently meets the didactic requirements for optometrists in Oregon, Washington and Alaska. After viewing all 18 segments of the course, the doctor will take a written exam over the course materials. This exam will be administered through an approved proctor site (state board offices, university, or at Pacific University College of Optometry).
A passing score would be 75 percent. We encourage you to review the complete list of video segments. Course materials were recorded August 16 – 18, 2010, during the PUCO/OOPA AOT course at Pacific University in Forest Grove, Oregon. Course master is KEN EAKLAND, OD.
The tuition for the course will be $1,800. The doctor will have 30 days to view the 18 segments of the course from the time their registration has been processed.
In order to begin the registration process please follow the instructions found here.
Washington requires an additional 8 hours of “supervised clinical workshop” and 4 hours of injections workshop for licensure. Optometric Physicians of Washington (OPW) is making plans to hold the 12 hours of workshops this spring.
