Abstract
The teaching of optics in France has undergone important changes during the past twenty years. After a long period of domination of optics in physics teaching, the part of optics went down ; it is now increasing again both because the cultural role of optics has gained a better recognition and because of professional demand in the ever developing applications of optics in optoelectronic and optronic systems.
