Thursday, April 23 2026 | 14 h 31 min | News
Optik Magazine, in collaboration with the Opticians Association of Canada and the Contact Lens Institute, is inviting opticians across Canada to participate in a new survey on contact lenses and the evolving role of opticians in patient care and practice growth.
The survey is designed to gather new insights into how opticians engage with contact lenses in practice, including training, patient support, professional confidence, and the opportunities that contact lenses may present for both patient outcomes and business growth.
Soft contact lenses continue to represent meaningful potential for patients and practices alike. Yet in many settings, that opportunity may still be underrecognized. This survey aims to better understand current perspectives within the profession and identify areas where additional support, education, and engagement may be valuable.
Canadian opticians are invited to complete the survey and share their perspectives.
Top-line findings will be published through Optik and Eye Care Business Canada media. All individual responses will remain anonymous.
As a thank you for participating, respondents who complete the survey in full will be entered into a prize draw for a pool of five $20 e-gift cards, for a total prize value of $100.

Participation from opticians across Canada will help strengthen the value of the findings and contribute to a broader understanding of contact lens–related opportunities in today’s opticianry landscape.
