OPTICAL PRISM MAGAZINE AND OAC PARTNER
Opticians Eye News’ To Keep Industry In The Know
This year has seen many exciting partnerships in
the eyewear industry.
The Opticians Association of Canada (OAC) and
Optical Prism magazine are pleased to announce
a new collaborative relationship designed to keep
readers even more informed on the latest news
and trends.
Every quarter Optical Prism Magazine will feature
the OAC’s industry newsletter ‘Opticians Eye News’
to discuss current issues facing Canadian Opticians
today. The news will also include activities of the
association and how it affects Opticians.
“To be published within the pages of such a forward
thinking and professional magazine speaks to
the integrity and importance of the message carried
by the OAC,” said OAC president Robert Dalton.
“Optical Prism is a publication with much history
and it is well read by most Opticians in the country.”
Dalton said, the OAC believes that the absence
of the organization from industry magazines has
created a gap in communications and the OAC
wants to ensure that all Opticians are engaged.
This new relationship with Optical Prism
magazine will ensure that the reach of the OAC
remains strong across all sectors of the optical
industry.

whose commitment is to promote licensed opticians in
