The ABO Advanced Certification (ABOC-AC) validates advanced-level knowledge and skills in ophthalmic dispensing. It covers optics, ocular anatomy, prescription analysis and interpretation, eyewear design and fitting, ophthalmic instrumentation, dispensary protocols, and professional regulations. The credential is earned after holding ABO certification for one three-year renewal period (or, with an opticianry degree, any time after passing the Basic exam) and passing this rigorous examination. Advanced-certified opticians work in independent practices, ophthalmology offices, hospitals, and optical manufacturing.

The ABO Advanced Certification (ABOC-AC) is an advanced credential from the American Board of Opticianry that validates higher-level knowledge and skills in ophthalmic dispensing. It demonstrates that an optician has attained several years of experience, completed advanced education, and passed a rigorous examination covering advanced optics, prescription analysis, lens design, and professional standards.
Candidates must hold an active basic ABO certification and have completed at least one recertification period (three years) before taking the Advanced exam. A candidate with a degree in Opticianry may test any time after passing the Basic exam by submitting proof of the degree. If a state licensing board adopts the Advanced exam for licensing, the state requirement supersedes these rules.
