Following the enormous success of We Are Here, Optometry Australia’s (OA) 2020 lockdown virtual choir, members are warmly invited to join the Optometry Australia Pub Choir. This first-ever (as far as we know!) choir of Aussie optometrists will debut at the Optometry Clinical Conference in Melbourne on 17-18 August.
With a passion for travelling and improving eye health in regional areas, no two days are the same for South Australian outreach optometrist Stephanie Callisto. We caught up with Stephanie, who is also an OV/SA Board member, to discuss what motivates her and how she stays grounded.
“Optometry should not just be a job. It is an opportunity to make life better for many people” – OV/SA Life Member award winner John Farmer OAM discusses his life-changing work in Papua New Guinea and the future of optometry.
In the spirit of reconciliation Optometry Australia acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respects to their Elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today.
