The Finnish Association of Vision and Eyecare is the common professional organisation of eyewear chains, optics stores, eye clinic companies and all their importers, manufacturers, wholesale businesses and equipment suppliers. Between the general meetings, the Finnish Association of Vision and Eyecare is managed by its board of directors. The office operating under the supervision of the CEO is responsible for preparing and implementing the decisions. The member companies participate in the preparation of the decisions and the positions of the Finnish Association of Vision and Eyecare through member networks.
The Finnish Association of Vision and Eyecare has four member networks:
- the entrepreneur network
- the chain network
- the wholesale network
- the eye clinic network.
Each network has representatives in the association’s board of directors, and every member company may participate in the activities of its own member network. This is how we guarantee a fair role for everyone in decision-making.
