Ophthalmic Photographers Society Inc

The OPS Board of Certification's mission is to accredit and recognize qualifying ophthalmic imagers that meet a standard of education, experience and competency to preform fluorescein, ICG angiography and Optical Coherence Tomography. The OPS BOC serves as the formal body responsible for the certification of retinal angiographers and Ophthalmic Coherence Tomographers. The BOC's foremost certification is the Certified Retinal Angiographer (CRA) program. The National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA) accredited the CRA program in 1999, and reaccredited in 2005, 2010 and 2015. CRA Certification requires submission of work examples that meet established standards as well as successful completion of written and performance examinations. To date, more than 740 ophthalmic photographers have attained the Certified Retinal Angiographer (CRA) credential. The BOC launched a certification program for Optical Coherence Tomographer-Certified (OCT-C) in July of 2007 and updated it in 2014. OCT-C certification requires submission of work examples that meet established standards and successful completion of a written examination.

The Journal of Ophthalmic Photography is a peer-reviewed journal generally published two times per year by the Ophthalmic Photographers' Society. In production since 1980, the Journal has featured articles on fundus camera operation, slitlamp biomicrography, new instrumentation, case presentations, and innovative techniques in ophthalmic diagnostic imaging.
