Abstract	Concern about the adequacy of existing optometry schools to meet the needs and demands for optometric education in the South prompted a study, to result in a proposal for expansion of education in the field. The results showed that there is a shortage of optometrists in each of the 14 states of the Southern Regional Education Board (SREB) region, and a need for additional schools of optometry to meet the citizens' minimum requirements. A minimum of two additional schools are needed in the near future. It is recommended that they be established in academic health centers of universities and be developed as regional resources through the contracts-for-services program presently in operation in the SREB states. Tables and somewhat detailed state maps illustrate the study. (MSE)
