Quoted from the NFOS Website at http://nfos.org/ :Looking back at past OptiBoard threads there seems to be a general agreement that Opticianry needs some form of National standard. Would formal education be a first step? How do you feel about formal education? Do you think it should be mandatory?At the grass roots level, there is a growing awareness that education, certification, cooperation, and licensure are the critical components to build the Opticianry profession. Our vision is that Opticianry will serve the public as the recognized profession delivering post-refractive eyecare that provides optimum visual performance and eye safety in the new millenium.
