Practice Owner / Optometrist

Carolyn graduated from Optometry School in South Africa and completed bridging qualifications and registration in the United Kingdom. She has been working in Australia since 1990, much of which was spend as a behavioural optometrist in Sydney Since the age of 13 Carolyn has wanted to be an optometrist. With a family history of myopia, she had regular visits to the optometrist. During her final years at University, the Paediatric and Children’s Vision components were what she most enjoyed. Her passion for behavioural vision was ignited when she found that she could not help all the patients she was evaluating, due to more complex difficulties which were not addressed with standard optometric care. Since then Carolyn has completed her Fellowship in Behavioural Optometry (FACBO) and the Advanced Accreditation of Neuro Optometric Care (ANOC). In addition Carolyn has completed the Behavioural Masters unit at UNSW, as well as the Optometric Extension Foundation Program (USA).
