Established in 1926 as the Guild of Prescription Opticians, the Opticians Association of America (OAA) is the only national organization representing opticianry's business, professional, educational, legislative and regulatory interests.

The Opticians Association of America's mission is to promote and expand opticianry by being the single unified voice of America's Opticians.  In support of this mission we are committed to promoting professional stature through leadership, education, legislative representation and communication.

Under OAA's very broad umbrella, individuals providing eyeglasses or contact lenses to consumers, as well as owners / managers of retail optical firms, state optician societies and suppliers to professional optician find a common goal in Advancing America's Opticians.  
OAA fosters, supports and sponsors programs of competency certification, licensing and continuing education for professional development.
