Nigerian Optometric Association, Abuja

Behold the face of the man whom the cap fits.
NOA is privileged to have one man with all the trappings of a leader.
Let's take advantage of these qualities by giving him our vote.

Did you know that; when the NHIS first Operational Guidelines were to be reviewed, he was called upon to represent Optometry interest. What was initially proposed was outrageous and unsustainable. He demanded for the inclusion of lenses as part of the entitlement as they had already classified lenses and frames as prosthetics and therefore should not be covered.
He proposed a reasonable payment regimen that was acceptable and sustainable.
Today we are still benefitting from the scheme. And he believes he can do more for us. Today eye clinics in government hospitals stand tall as one of the highest income generators so government can and will employ more optometrists. Today clinic owners registered under the NHIS can earn more and pay their employees better and employ better too. This is advocacy in action my people!!!

.
VOTE FOR A BETTER NOA.
VOTE FOR DR OZY.

Vote him and you will be proud of voting right.

NIGERIAN OPTOMETRIC ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE AND EXPO/39TH
AGM, 2015.
ADVANCING OPTOMETRY IN NIGERIA: RESEARCH AND ETHICS.
Greetings from the Local Organizing Committee (LOC) of the Nigerian
Optometric Association (NOA) Conference and 39th Annual General Meeting,
2015. The LOC wishes to register its profound appreciation for the great
interest so far expressed by members of the NOA nationwide, and we pledge
total commitment to making the Conference a memorable one for all of us.
The Conference dates are Wednesday 1st to Saturday 4th July, 2015 and a
summary of the programme is as follows:
DAY 1. Wednesday 1st July:
(i) Arrival and Registration of Delegates;
(ii) Courtesy Calls
(iii) Vision Screening by Women Optometrists in Nigeria (WON)
(iv) EXCO meetings
(v) Pre-Conference Workshop.
PRE CONFERENCE WORKSHOP:
The Pre-Conference Workshop is mainly a new innovation by the present
Exco and the LOC aimed at deepening practical experience in optometry
with a touch of next generation impetus and to raise the consciousness of the
practitioner in new developments within the industry.
The areas covered include:
(i) Slit Lamp Biomicroscopy,
(ii) Visual Field Analysis Interpretation,
(iii) Scientific Paper Writing and
(iv) Statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) Data Analysis.
Family of Optometry Mentors (FOM) has volunteered to assist in provision of manpower and instrumentation for the conduct of the workshop
However FOM has capacity to train a maximum of 100 Optometrists divided
into two groups of 50 persons for each course
The workshop has been more than 400 percent subsidized and each
participant is expected to pay a token of N3,000 for lunch and workshop
materials. It is a hands-on, fully practical training aimed at demystifying Slit
Lamp Biomicroscopy, Visual Fields Interpretation, Scientific paper writing and SPSS, at the end of which a Certificate of Participation will be issued.
Please note that the workshop is absolutely optional and has very limited
spaces for optometrists who wish to enrich themselves by participating. It
does not affect the total Credit Points obtainable from the Conference, in anyway whatsoever. However, mere registration for the conference does not guarantee maximum units as all the conference guidelines and conditions will be used in awarding credit points.
