Why Lenses Design Matters

Many of you would know my middle-child Demi. She’s been wearing glasses for most of her life and has been the guinea pig for many of new and upcoming lens technologies before I introduce them into my practice to my patients. This week Demi found the time to avoid her university studies and write about her experience with personalised lens technology and how it’s revolutionised her understanding of vision and also the optical industry.

My Grade 4 child had Amblyopia/Lazy eye.

When we first met Miss C, she was only booked in for a routine eye examination simply because her brother was having an eye test. No one suspected that she might have an eye problem.
