Welcome to the Alberta Association of Optometrists

The mission of the Alberta Association of Optometrists is to promote excellence in the practice of Optometry, to enhance public recognition of Optometry as the primary vision care provider in Alberta, and to advance the interests of the profession.

Optometry is the only vision care profession with the ability to perform the visual diagnosis, prescribe lenses and design, verify, and fit spectacles to meet the functional requirements of the workplace.
