American Optometric Association

The American Optometric Association (AOA) is an organization that works to support and protect the rights of optometrists (eye care professionals) in the United States. It helps make sure optometrists can do their jobs safely and gives them access to resources like continuing education and research. It also helps connect optometrists across the country and lets them share information and ideas about how to provide the best possible care to patients.
