Bill > SB1501

This bill extends the Tennessee Board of Dispensing Opticians, which is responsible for regulating individuals who fit and sell eyeglasses and contact lenses, until June 30, 2031, by amending specific sections of Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) related to governmental boards and the practice of opticianry. The bill removes a specific subdivision from TCA Section 4-29-247(a) and adds the Board of Dispensing Opticians as a recognized board under TCA Section 4-29-252(a), which lists various state boards. The amendments are intended to ensure the continued oversight and regulation of dispensing opticians in Tennessee.
