Relating to authorizing the Board of Optometry to promulgate a legislative rule relating to continuing education.

HB 4303 authorizes West Virginia's Board of Optometry to establish a specific rule (14 CSR 10) governing continuing education requirements for optometrists. The bill formally approves a rule that the Board had previously drafted, modified to address concerns raised by the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee, and refiled in the State Register. This rule directly affects licensed optometrists in West Virginia by setting standards for their required ongoing professional education. The bill itself does not change the content of the rule, only grants the Board the authority to implement it.
