What is ADOA

United voice - The Australasian Dispensing Opticians Association (ADOA) provides a united voice for dispensing opticians across Australia.

 Government Involvement – ADOA is involved with governments at State and Federal level, ie Veteran Affairs, Vision Care and Standards Australia.

 Industry Recognition – ADOA has also been recognised by private health organisations and has been given due recognition by the optical industry.

 Member Support - ADOA will continue to support, protect and develop professional standards for its members.

You have NSW qualifications or equivalent qualifications and completed 800 hours of supervised experience. You were a Licensed Optical Dispenser. Don’t let that title disappear and be confused with an unqualified spectacle seller.

 

Members of the public can be assured that Dispensing Opticians certified by ADOA are fully qualified to carry out their professional duties.

 

The government recommends that deregulated health workers become self-regulatory to ensure that high industry standards remain.  ADOA raises the status and standing of skill and knowledge of Optical Dispensers. ADOA represents its members, has determined a code of high professional conduct and promotes continuing education.
