As you can see the ABO-NCLE says that states who license now are looking to stop because of costs and lobbyists of stores who make glasses and contact lenses.
If they could hire Opticians that do not have to be educated, keep taking continuing education each year, nor pay for licensing exams, they can pay them less and charge us the patient consumers more and make deeper profits at the cost of each persons health who enters their store and the safety of every citizen in this country who must either drive or be a passenger in a vehicle on our countries roads!
Anyone driving without properly made glasses is driving Impaired no differently than a person drinking or doing drugs. Impairment is impairment regardless what the cause!
As of now driving with glasses made in a unlicensed state is not a crime and is totally acceptable, but should not be!!

Hello,
I only found out last week from a delightful John Rizzo Optician at Lens Crafters of Concord NC that not all states in this country license Opticians and this is scary!!

Yes, it is. For many years, the Opticians Association of America has tried to get states to license. Now, with the cost of testing, more states are considering dropping licensure!!

SCARY!!!! HOW MANY BLIND PEOPLE DRIVING ON OUR COUNTRIES ROADS????
I Plan to send/share my story at Federal level... Food Drug Administration & write the White House too!!
I am stunned to the point of vomiting to see how filthy my house has been and I did not know!!!
Its a miracle me & my family have not died of some sort of strange disease... because I could not see the grime!!!
OOOOOG!
And I cannot begin to say How many Trillions of Miracles it took fo GOD to keep me alive this long, because I could never see!!!
And though I often thanked HIM, More Often I did not... because I never knew the traps of death I was saved from.... All because I could not see anything!
Blessings !

What has your group already done or are doing to have all states license?
I am very serious about furthering this cause and I do not want to reinvent the wheel....
I have a history of successfully petitioning local stores to carry salt free breads etc when I was in Louisiana and I know that every citizen in this country has the right to start a petition and send that petition through Congress...
I know a great deal about lobbying being I was born in the Sodom & Gomorah of the new world where it was fashionable among many to be crooked with financial backers.
I am going to write online tonight "Mothers Against Drunk Drivers!" They will have a canary probably do not know this problem exists!
GOD BLESS YOU!
