§ 7. Additional practice locations. Every holder of a license under this Act shall report to the Department every additional location where the licensee engages in the practice of optometry. Such reports shall be made prior to practicing at the location and shall be done in a manner prescribed by the Department. Failure to report a practice location or to maintain evidence of such a report at the practice location shall be a violation of this Act and shall be considered the unlicensed practice of optometry. Registering a location where a licensee does not practice shall also be a violation of this Act. Nothing contained herein, however, shall be construed to require a licensed optometrist in active practice to report a location to the Department when serving on the staff of a hospital or an institution that receives no fees (other than entrance registration fees) for the services rendered by the optometrist and for which the optometrist receives no fees or compensation directly or indirectly for such services rendered. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to require a licensed optometrist to report a location to the Department when rendering necessary optometric services for his or her patients confined to their homes, hospitals or institutions, or to act in an advisory capacity, with or without remuneration, in any industry, school or institution.
