The Norwegian Opticians Association is a non-profit organization that works to promote professional development and cooperation among opticians. The organization organizes annual professional conferences that are open to everyone, regardless of place of work. These conferences attract participants from various parts of the industry, including students and teaching staff, and provide a platform for professional exchange and networking.
In addition to the conferences, the Norwegian Opticians Association focuses on vision research and safety through events such as Forskningnatt, where current topics are presented. The organization also collaborates with the Norwegian Association of the Blind to offer webinars on vision impairment, which contributes to increased awareness and knowledge about vision health. Participation in international conferences, such as the American Academy of Optometry, as well as events such as the Silmo fair in Paris and the Kongsberg Vision Meeting, underlines the organisation's commitment to professional development on a global level.
