My optometry page

In 1997 and 1998, I worked as an optometrist part time, while finishing off my BSc in mathematics. While I quickly became disillusioned with the practice at which I was working, I have continued to use my optometry knowledge in my current research position.

Here are various articles I wrote that are somehow related to optometry:

• 30 day Extended Wear contact lenses—are they really an option?
  • Picture - Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis
• Coloured contact lenses—why they REALLY annoy me
• Behcet's syndrome
• What you should expect in a full initial optometric consultation in Australia
• Making your presentations readable

Remember that these are MY opinions, not necessarily the opinions held by the majority of optometrists.

Have a look at this AWESOME online book on visual perception, called "The Joy of Visual Perception".

For other optometry related sites, try:

• Optometry at the University of Melbourne
• National Research Vision Institute
• Optometrists Association Australia
