January 31Verify with board

Every 2 years

Board wording: License renews biennially. UNCONFIRMED: Mich. Admin. Code R. 338.331 requires the 40 hours during the 2 years preceding renewal but does not state the calendar expiration date; Michigan health licenses generally expire January 31 (per LARA FAQs), but the exact date and odd/even-year parity for optometry could not be confirmed from an official board source.
