Our Mission
We want to raise awareness about proactive eyecare by engaging with all stakeholders to reduce avoidable blindness.
Optometry Northern Ireland was established from the Negotiating committee for Northern Ireland and has representation from the main associations for optometrists and dispensing opticians in N.I.
The reason for our formation was to present a united voice to the Northern Ireland Department of Health, politicians, media and others.
