Dr. William F. Harvey has been appointed to the Nevada State Board of Optometry by Governor Jim Gibbons. Dr. Harvey will serve for a three-year term. The Nevada State Board of Optometry is “the public’s protection for the optometry field,” says Dr. Harvey. They control the licensing of optometrists in the state, issue new licenses, discipline, revoke licenses and suggest changes in laws related to their field. The board consists of three optometrists, and attorney and an executive director.

Dr. Harvey will still keep his practice in Las Vegas at 815 S 7th St., where he has worked as an optometrist for over 32 years. He also provides optometry care on the Paiute Indian Reservation two days a week.
