Optical industry has been in our country
It is for many decades, but it has been populated mostly by dispensing opticians and unqualified practitioners.
In 1991, to safe guard the interest of the public, the government implemented the optical Act. Through this act a new born profession has been categorized and that is the optometrist. They are not only trained merely on dispensing spectacles but are university trained in eye examination. They are taught about the eye structure, its biochemistry, its optics, its pharmacology and etc. So this is the properly trained professional forming the new generation of practices.
