Alan Said:
The public must command the care of an individual certified to perform those services by a professional or recognized organization that is industry, national, or international.
In the background the OAA, NAO, and worthy state and regional organizations move towards legislative change with academic support.
I can think of nothing I would enjoy more than to see an ordinary customer say to his own doctor, "I heard on TV that I should be asking for a certified optician here in your optical room. So, where is he/she?" And, let the sucker talk his way out of that. He would have no choice but to come up with a lot of bull. Sooner or later, that doctor will be forced to have a better qualified person. Who won't be available at slave wages.
There's a lot more to that than "meets the eye." Just you watch and see . . . I pray that we can get the support needed at the OAA and hopefully when the day comes . . . IOC.
This is a nice statement but it does not go far enough. What do we have to do to convince the public that they have the right and obligation to ask for a certified or state licensed person to fulfill there eyeglass prescription needs?
