The NCOA is dedicated to educating and protecting North Carolina Opticians. Since 1950 the NCOA has been working to support the optical industry and the professionals that work in North Carolina dispensaries each day. We are working hard to create a website that will allow you to access information as well as register for continuing education classes, become an NCOA member, and easily locate other information relevant to licensed opticians in North Carolina.
