The reason for his creation of the NBO back in the 90s was because of a disagreement with a new policy of the ABO that exempted older doctors from being recertified every 10 years. 

"I thought this was hypocritical and unjust for the older ophthalmologists to exempt themselves from the recertification exam," he writes. "... Is it fair that the ophthalmologist down the street can claim board certification, without renewing it, but that a younger ophthalmologist, who passed the same boards, is disallowed?"


Seems like a legitimate gripe.

Rand Paul isn’t always my favorite senator but as an ophthalmologist I’m a big fan. Dr. Paul performs eye surgery in Haiti and Guatemala every year for free. He donates his time, talent, and treasure.
