Welcome to Optometry Queensland Northern Territory

At Optometry Qld/NT we deliver a range of fantastic benefits to the optometry profession. We take the time to listen to our members by visiting practices, speaking to members at CPD and social events, or by talking to them on the phone. Getting to know your individual needs and aspirations allows us to provide you with the information, support, advice and events you need at a time and place that best suits you.

Every state is governed by its own set of legislation that impacts the profession differently to those based in another state or territory. It is our job to know this legislation and advise you in the most appropriate way.

We take the time to dedicate ourselves to advocacy work that ensures optometry in Queensland and the Northern Territory continues to prosper and benefit all of our members.

Throughout the year we offer a number of local CPD and social events, and organise large internationally reaching conferences and conventions. As a member you get immediate access to all of these as well as generous discounts to our world-class conventions.

Please contact one of our friendly team members to discuss the benefits of membership or join or renew your OQNT membership today.

Optometry Qld/NT would like to advise members that we collect and manage member data and that this is undertaken in accordance to the Privacy Policy.
