eye camps

​

It's so important to reach people with eye problems who either do not know about us, or cannot reach us. We therefore run frequent eye camps thoughout the year.  Our staff bring equipment out into more rural communities and areas that are far away from accessible eye care. We test people, treat them there and then when we can, and arrange for them to visit the Eye Centre if needed. We started 2019 with a busy eye camp. As you can see from the photo many people turned up to have their eyes tested!

a visitor from Norway

Anne Jervell is an optometrist from Norway. We were so happy to have her visit the Eye Centre and share her expertise. Here in the photo she is showing our optometrist, Brenda, how to use a phoropter. A phoropter is a device for determining a persons spectacle prescription.
