Candidates may also have the option to utilize personal extended health care benefits, if available.

If you do not follow the instructions on the Start Here page in full, your vision form will not be processed.

OFAI will ONLY accept our vision form, and it must be stamped by your optometrist. Please DO NOT attach a business card – if a stamp is unavailable, please attach your paid receipt. Failure to submit correct documentation will result in your vision form not being processed. You may be required to return to your optometrist and additional charges may apply.

Please allow a minimum of three (3) business days for your vision form to be processed.
