The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2025 Supplement, section 169.71, subdivision 4a, to clarify that optometrists are authorized to prescribe certain window glazing materials for vehicles. The amendments specify that glazing materials required for medical needs can be prescribed by either a physician or an optometrist, and the prescription must detail whether the medical condition is temporary or permanent, the minimum percentage of light transmittance allowed, and include an expiration date unless the condition is permanent.

Additionally, the bill outlines specific exceptions for glazing materials that do not fall under the standard regulations, including those applied to rear windows of pickup trucks, vans, limousines, police vehicles, and vehicles used to transport human remains. The effective date of the amendments is retroactive to July 1, 2025, and applies to prescriptions issued on or after that date.
