‘Optical Dispensing’ is a niche specialty that combines the corrective,remedial elements of dispensing visual aids to right fit and right match of the user with the marketing aspects, a critical combination which gives optometrists the winning edge in a real time scenario. A Fellowship certification in this fine art combining the commercial and dispensing aspects, by a world renowned optometry institution is the Gold standard in the field which could significantly enhance the career prospects of the candidate in any part of the world, hence it was a moment to rejoice when Shakthipriya, Ameera, Kokila and Jayanthi belonging to the first batch of students pursuing their B.Sc in ophthalmic dispensing at the Sankara Nethralaya Academy were awarded their Fellowship in optical dispensing, by the Association of British Dispensing Optometrists, (ABDO) UK

The Sankara Nethralaya Academy and Sankara Nethralaya convey their hearty congratulations to the successful Fellows for this high acknowledgment by the world leader in its field and wish them a bright future and many more academic milestones.
