Founded in 1935, the Connecticut Opticians Association is dedicated to promoting the highest possible standard of honor, integrity, and professionalism for opticianry in the state of Connecticut. Our state was the first in the nation to license opticians, and we consider our obligation to the profession and to the patients of Connecticut to be an ongoing process of improvement and maintenance of the highest possible standards.
We hold that opticians and opticianry are a vital part of the health care delivery system, and as a professional organization representing opticians, we encourage, provide, and promote standards of optical competence, knowledge and performance through the development of educational programs, training, and credentialing of optical personnel.
