Welcome! We're glad you're here!

 The Opticians Association of Georgia is dedicated to promoting professionalism for Licensed Opticians and aspiring Registered Apprentices on the path to licensure through representation, education, advocacy, and community outreach.

Whether you're a longstanding Licensed Optician needing to renew your certifications and license, a Registered Apprentice working towards advancing your career, or even an individual interested in joining our prestigious profession, we are here to be your resource for information, guidance, and the latest legislative news over anything involving the Opticianry profession and optical industry.
