The Board is supported by a full-time professional staff based in Tallahassee, and its regulatory functions are funded in full by fees paid by its licensees. The Department of Health's Division of Medical Quality Assurance serves as the principle administrative support unit for the Board.
Despite the expiration of their term, Board members continue to serve until they have been replaced. Five members are licensed opticians and two members are laypersons. The Board consists of seven members appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Senate. The Board plays a leading role in the ever-changing health care environment through dialogue with the public, the legislature, academia, and the community.
