About these terms
These terms cover your use of the Fovea website and its study tools: the question bank, the exam guides, the study planner, the station drills and the study notes.
Study material, not official guidance
Our questions, explanations, guides and plans are educational material written for practice. They are not NBEO materials and do not guarantee any score or result. Exam formats, dates, fees and policies are set by NBEO and can change, so always confirm them with NBEO before you register or sit an exam.
Not affiliated with NBEO
NBEO®, Part I ABS®, Part II PAM®, TMOD® and Part III PEPS® are registered trademarks of the National Board of Examiners in Optometry. Fovea is independent and is not affiliated with, sponsored by or endorsed by NBEO.
Clinical content
Clinical information on this site supports exam preparation. It is not medical advice and is not a substitute for current clinical guidelines, product labeling or the judgment of your supervising clinicians when caring for patients.
Your account
Accounts are free and personal. Keep access to your email secure, since sign-in links are sent there. We may suspend an account that is used to misuse the site.
Using the site
Use Fovea for your own study. Please do not copy, scrape or republish the question bank or the notes, and do not try to break or overload the site.
Our content
The questions, explanations, notes, design and the Fovea name belong to Fovea. You may share links to any page, and you may print your own study plan for personal use.
Liability
We work hard to keep every question and explanation accurate, and we fix reported errors, but the site is provided as it is. As far as the law allows, we are not liable for losses arising from your use of the site. Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law does not allow us to limit.
