Executive Director
The National Examining Board of Ocularists was formed in
November, 1980, in response to the need for more uniform standards in the field
of ophthalmic prosthetics (artificial eyes).
The National Examining Board of Ocularists is an independent
agency whose primary function is the assessment of competence of the ocularist
who performs the variety of health care related functions encountered in the
fitting and fabrication of ophthalmic prosthetics.
The Board consists of eight members appointed by the American
Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO), the American Board of Certification of Orthotics and
Prosthetics, the American Society of Ocularists (ASO), The Canadian Society of
Ocularists (CSO), and a Public Member who is
elected by the National Examining Board of Ocularists.
The Certification Examination is offered annually and is a
two-part examination consisting of written and practical sections. The
examination is a criterion-referenced examination which has been developed and
continues to be re-evaluated utilizing techniques which are accepted and
approved by the psychometric community.
The National Examining Board of Ocularists is a member of The Institute for Credentialing Excellence
(ICE), formerly the National Organization for
Competency Assurance (NOCA). Guidance from the Commission is for
organizations to meet the most rigid standards of excellence in
test development and administration in certification.
Article XIII
The National Examining Board of Ocularists shall not discriminate against
applicants on the basis of age, sex, color, religion, or national origin, and
shall include a statement of this non-discrimination policy on the application
and other publications.
