Everyone is of course free to go wherever they wish to go for an eye examination, however the Behavioural Optometrist with ACBO Fellowship Accreditation (FACBO) is your assurance that the optometrist you are going to see has achieved the necessary qualifications to ensure an indepth assessment of your child’s visual system and vision development. The Behavioural Optometrist is required to undertake ongoing continuing education to remain at the forefront of the profession.
