No Optometrist is not able to use the word "DR". Dr is used only by person who is successfully completed his MBBS, BDS, BHMS, BAMS, PHD Etc

Hi

Any person who holds the degree of mbbs, bds or the one who have completed their doctorate in any subject are allowed to use the title 'Dr' before their names, I hope this clarifies your doubt.

Thank you
