In this study, the questions of what kind of teaching materials is used in the laboratory of the Opticianry programs in Turkey which is a combined of different age groups in which there are beginners and professionals making this profession for years, whether does the mentioned teaching materials in the mentioned laboratory meet the content of the theoretical and practical courses given during the two year period of the opticianry programs and what is the educational fields that should be completed by opticians are researched. By looking at the results of the surveys, it can be seen that the trainings in the laboratory is insufficient to meet the received courses by opticianry and the universities have responsibilities to overlap the given courses with the laboratories this results shows that opticianry lab training needs to be renewed based on optical physics concepts.
