The Association of British Dispensing Opticians (ABDO) was formed in 1986 when its two predecessors, The Association of Dispensing Opticians and the Faculty of Dispensing Opticians, were merged following the Health and Social Security Act of 1984. The profession of dispensing opticians has been regulated voluntarily since 1926 and, as a statutory profession, by the Opticians Act since 1958. Since such time the conduct of Dispensing Opticians has thus been regulated partly by legal provisions, by advice given by the General Optical Council, and by ABDO's own Advice to Fellows. 199 Gloucester Terrace LondonW2 6LD Telephone: 020 7298 5100 Web:www.abdo.org.uk Godmersham Park Mansion Godmersham Kent CT4 7DT Telephone: 01227 738829 Please click here for more contacts. |
