Purpose : To study the recognition of optometrists for product liability law.
Methods : We surveyed 117 directors and optometrists working in 50 optician´s shops in Gwangsan-gu in Gwangju metropolitan city, Naju-si, Hampyeong-gun, Mokpo-si, Gangjin-gun, and Haenam-gun in Jeollanam-do. The questionaires obtained were analyzed by using SPSS 17.0, a statistical analysis program.
Results : We can see that the recognition for product liability (PL) law is more improved in this study than in the year 2003. Nevertheless, no change in the recognition appeared for 62 percent. It suppose that optometrists do not know or have no concern in the execution of PL law and an awareness change and familiarity of optometrists. There was no case for question to PL law in the year 2003 study but there were thirteen cases in this study. It appeared that eduction for the counterplan of PL law is more needed for directors than for optometrists.
Conclusions : It is considered that case study on faulty products against PL law is systematically done and also attitude change and awareness conversion of optometrists are needed for consumers.
