In 2026, we’ll be marking a huge milestone – 100 years of the profession! We’d love for our members to be part of the celebrations.

Right now, we’re looking for your input and involvement. Here’s how you can help:

  • Member profiles – be featured in our social media campaign
  • 100 voices – share your thoughts as a dispensing optician
  • Case studies – Tell us about your experiences and successes

Centenary logo

Thank you to all our members who voted for the centenary logos. These are your winning designs for you to use. Please display them proudly to celebrate the centenary of your profession.

Before any literature or signage goes to print please submit a proof to the communications department at ABDO

The relative size of all of component parts that make up the logo must never vary and should never be redrawn or detached. In addition to the minimum width rule and the exclusion zone around the crest, there are a number of (fairly logical) rules that need to be adhered to when applying the logo to literature or online. These examples of breach of logo usage apply to both the vertical and horizontal logos.
