The Delhi Optometrists Association (DOA) has scheduled a Zoom meeting with all Optometry Associations on August 3rd, 2025, at 9:30 PM to discuss filing a PIL in court for establishing an Optometry Council. This move aims to advocate for Optometry's recognition as an independent profession under a statutory body or Act of Parliament, rather than being part of the Ophthalmic Science Council.

Key Objectives:

*Establish Optometry Council*: To push for the formation of an independent Optometry Council in India, similar to councils for medical, dental, and pharmacy professions.
*PIL Filing*: To discuss and plan the filing of a PIL in the Supreme Court to challenge the National Commission for Allied and Healthcare Professions Act 2021.
*Financial Planning*: The estimated expenditure for the PIL is around ₹35-40 lakhs, and the DOA is working on securing funds to support the litigation process ¹.

Background:

The Optometry profession in India seeks recognition and regulation under a separate council to ensure quality eye care services and standardize optometry education. The DOA is taking a lead role in uniting optometrists and associations to achieve this goal ².

Participation:

The meeting aims to bring together representatives from various optometry associations across India to discuss the future of the profession and collective action for establishing an Optometry Council. If you're part of an optometry association or interested in participating, you can reach out to the DOA through their email: [email protected] or [email protected].
