Reviews:

This book is wonderful for those of you who don't have a lot of sit down time to study. I went through the book and was able to identify the areas I needed to study most. This helped me avoid excess study time in areas I was already fairly comfortable in. It is also a nice size book to carry around with you so whenever you have a free minute, you can quiz yourself. I also used it at work as a trivia game with my other co-workers. It made learning fun! I definately recommend this book to anyone hoping to pass the COA exam.

I purchased this book along with the Ophthalmic Ass't by Stein and Slatts. These books are excellent teaching materials.

I ordered this book one day and received it the next. Talk about fast! It is a great tool for anyone studying the Certified Ophthalmic Technician exam.

This book is very helpful when you want to refine your skills. Whether it be for THE EXAM or for that rarely used skill....this book helps you get the job done.

I found the review manual very helpful in studying for my COA exam. It was precise, and provided me with knowledge of alot of things that I had not dealt with in clinic before. There is alot of "old-school" things in the book, but come in very handy because there is alot of things on the test that are based on technology from years ago. Had I not studied this book, I would have been lost in taking my exam.

This manual was excellent in preparing me for my C.O.A. exam. It helps you to realize and improve upon your weak area's and to reinforce your not-so weak area's. It is much like the exam itself. I will definetly be using C.O.T. exam review manual to help study for my C.O.T. exam.
