Look beyond what you see this holiday season... many people are smiling to hide their loneliness & grief.

A smile or a kind word go a long way, but more than that, check in on how people are really going & spend some genuine quality time.

This eye is at the ‘Scleral Tint’ stage of the construction process - appointment 2 of 3 according to the Ocularists Association of Australia Standard Operating Procedures.
The eye has been tried in for assessment of fit, functionality and comfort, then skimmed back for enhancing and painting 🧑‍🎨 👁

So good to connect with other Ocularists at the OAA online AGM last weekend 👁

Throughout these difficult times, a higher level of anxiety and stress relating to the health of your eyes and quality of your vision is understandable!

This may be as a result or added to by the the difficulty in accessing your care care providers:
Ophthalmologist, Optometrist, Ocularist as well as your Psychologist, GP or any health professionals you rely on.

You are not alone!

Please reach out if you feel you require support throughout these unprecedented times.

If you feel there is any change to your vision, get in touch with your health care provider immediately!
