Report on
Trainers Training in Optical Dispensing (TTOD)
Background:
Globally, 285 million are estimated to be visually impaired and 39 million blind. Uncorrected
refractive errors at 43% is the primary cause of visual impairment. The number of visually
impaired in the South-east Asian region (India excluded) stands at 27.9 million and in India it
is 62.6 million. 1 The economic productivity loss dye to global burden of uncorrected
refractive error is estimated at US$ 121.4 billion. 2 Additionally, there are significant number
of people with near vision impairment- 49% to 83% among people of 35 years or older. Over
90% of those in need of near refractive correction in rural settings do not have the necessary
spectacles. 3
It is increasingly realised that the uncorrected refractive errors can hamper performance at
school, reduce employability and productivity, and generally impair quality of life. Yet the
correction of refractive errors with appropriate spectacles is among the most cost-effective
interventions in eye health care. It is obvious that there are significant numbers of people
who do not receive appropriate correction and in many the correction may not be the
appropriate. Appropriate refraction and dispensing of spectacles is a special skilled activity
performed by both ophthalmologists invariably though it is increasingly realised that this
could be done by trained optometrists (or ophthalmic technicians, such as ophthalmic
assistants, vision technician and refraction nurses) with equal ease and competence. This is
necessary in view of ophthalmologist man-power constraints in many countries. It is also will
also release the ophthalmologists in more important eye care. Many semi urban and rural
optical outlets also do refraction where the spectacles are delivered according to the
prescription. Unfortunately they do not employ the right personnel for this skilled work.

With the support from WHO- SEAR the IAPB SEA arrange to conduct the, Trainer Training in Optical
Dispensing course at L V Prasad Eye Institute, Bausch and Lomb School of optometry in GPR
Campus, Kismaptpur, Hyderabad. This is 10 days course for Optometrist or Ophthalmic assistants or
Optical Dispensing personal from India, Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
Objective:
To train the Optometrist Trainers in Scientific Optical Dispensing from countries of the
SEA regions .Once they completes the training , in return they will continue with similar training
programme to improve the spectacle dispensing skills of Optical dispensing personal in their
respective countries.
At the end of the training program it is expected that the trainee will understand all
aspects of optical dispensing and will be empowered to train people in his/her
country/ region.
Participants:
A total of 24 candidates were trained in the course 7 from India, 7 from Nepal, 6 from Sri Lanka and
4 from Bangladesh.

Training Description:
TTOD is a 6 Hours course for 10 days. Daily 3 hours of morning class room theory followed by 3
hours of Hand on session. All the major aspects of spectacle dispensing were covered in the course
like Types of Lenses, Lens materials, lens designs, Frame types, measurements, frames selection,
frame adjustment, edging lens, fitting lenses and sales skills. The course was conducted in 3 groups
with maximum 9 candidates per group. Pre and post training test was conducted to evaluate the
improvement in the knowledge of the participants.
Trainers were in house faculty Mr.P Sandeep Reddy , Mr. Srikanth M, Mr. Vijay Kumar Y, Mr. CH
Kiran, and Mr. Uday Kumar for training in Optical Dispensing aspects and Mr. Chaitanya N and
Ms.Snigdha for sales and soft skills training.
There was a 37% increase in the knowledge based on the pre and post training evaluation
with an improvement from average 40% pre training evaluation to 76% post training
evaluation.
