An ophthalmic medical practitioner (OMP) is a medical practitioner.[1] In the UK they are registered with a qualification in ophthalmology who is employed to carry out medical eye examinations and prescribe glasses, contact lenses, eyepatches and other orthoptic treatment.[citation needed] In order to work as an ophthalmic medical practitioner a doctor must be on the Central List of the Ophthalmic Qualifications Committee at the Royal College of Ophthalmologists. This is a statutory list that is administered by the British Medical Association.[citation needed] OMPs are often trainee ophthalmologists who work to supplement their income.[citation needed]
