The Governing Body of
Optometry in Nigeria
The Nigerian Optometric Association (NOA), founded in 1968, is the prime umbrella association representing over 4,000 Doctors of Optometry across Nigeria's 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
NOA works alongside the Federal Ministry of Health to expand universal health coverage through comprehensive, financially accessible eye care services. As the parent body of NOSA, NOA sets the professional and ethical standards that guide optometry students throughout their academic journey and into professional practice. The association is affiliated with the African Council of Optometry (AFCO) and the World Council of Optometry (WCO), positioning Nigerian optometry within the global eye care community.
