In order to sell eyeglasses, various knowledge and skills such as "highly accurate measurement technology", "processing technology that requires optical knowledge", and "custom-made eyeglass preparation technology" are required, but eyeglasses are qualified. Anyone can measure, process, and sell without it .

Because of this industry, it is necessary to have a qualification as a "certified eyeglass specialist" who is a professional eyeglasses .

A certified spectacle technician is the only qualification related to spectacles in Japan that is certified and educated by the "Japan Eyeglass Engineers Association" certified by the Prime Minister. There are 3 grades, S grade, SS grade, and SSS grade.

The average grade SS grade passes the graduation test at the time of graduating from the spectacle vocational school, or 5 years or more for high school graduates, 3 years for junior college graduates, 1 year or more for university graduates, and 5 departments. You must pass the qualification test for the 3 practical skills subjects .

​ The qualification test requires refraction inspection technology and accuracy, frame and lens processing and adjustment, optical knowledge, eye medical knowledge, and management knowledge .

If you do not take the specified number of lectures within 3 years after passing the exam, you will lose your qualification .

It is a qualification that requires you to acquire new knowledge throughout your life.
