Want to learn optical instrumentation skills, acquire contact lens slit-lamp proficiency, master back-toric v. bi-toric CL lenses and when to fit each? Study contact lens complications? Want useful ‘hands-on’ practical training, led by our award-winning and experienced optical instructors? All this and more is available to you in Canada, and in only 6-months of study.

For the past 33-year BC College of Optics has offered its innovative 6-month opticianry program. 29 USA States have no formal licensing requirements for opticians. If you are genuinely motivated to become listed as the best-trained and most knowledgeable optician in your area, then seriously consider taking 6-months out of your lives to visit beautiful BC, CANADA and enrol in our BC College of Optics program.

We don’t teach to only ‘basic’ ABO/NCLE levels... we teach the full range of optical competencies to ‘ADVANCED ABO/NCLE’ levels. And if properly motivated, BCCO graduates might even reach for the highest competency credentials available in the USA today... ABO Master (ABOM) and CLSA Fellow (FCLSA) status.

High School transcript showing Grade XII, or equivalent, (or mature student status), plus one year of Mathematics that included some basic Algebra is required for admission. Here are some examples of required ‘working knowledge’ Mathematics...
+6 +(-9)=? -5-(-4)=? If 6x + 3y= 14z, solve for x=?
