Optometry in Parkes
Part 4
Another first! Optometrists in Australia can now prescribe a wide range of medications to treat serious eye diseases such as glaucoma, bacterial keratitis and anterior uveitis as well as removing metallic foreign bodies. In 2010, Dr John was the first optometrist in Parkes to achieve this qualification and the ability to prescribe treatments for a wide range of eye conditions locally. Not only that, he has been lecturing and conducting tutorials at the University of Canberra on the treatment and prescribing for a wide range of ocular pathologies and has been using examples of patients from his clinical practice to show the students how things look in real life! And also, while teaching, he has been learning a whole lot more as well! So if you want the highest level of eyecare in Parkes, Dr John has is the only therapeutically-endorsed optometrist who lives and works in Parkes.

Optometry in Parkes

Part 3

Another first! Optical Coherence Tomography represents the greatest leap forward in the diagnosis and management of glaucoma and macula disease in recent history. Dr John was the first optometrist in Parkes to introduce this revolutionary technology to Parkes,  in 2011, and also used the equipment in his practice for his PhD studies. (and a big thank you here to all those patients who took part in those studies). So not only does he have the equipment, he knows how to drive it! Not only that, he now has the most up to date version of this technology, so if you want an optometrist with the most up to date training and technology, Dr John Pearce (PhD) Optometrist is the place to go and the person to see.

Cheers

Dr John

👓FUN FACT FRIDAY!!!!👓

The truth about optometry in Parkes First of the firsts!

Part 2

In 2017, Dr John became the first optometrist from Parkes to be awarded a Doctor of Philosophy degree (from the Australian National University), which is considered the highest postgraduate achievement you can earn and is at Level 10 on the Australian Qualifications Framework criteria. . Apart from also being awarded the title of “Doctor” as a result, it was nice to be able to demonstrate to other healthcare professionals that living and working in the country is no barrier to being able to undertake and achieve the highest levels of study.
His thesis was titled “Variability in perimetry and optical coherence tomography in glaucoma."” Which of course is massively relevant to his clinical practice in Parkes and greatly beneficial to his patients! Perhaps more importantly, Dr John realized that his knowledge of how to conduct research combined with his experiences in clinical practice could be used to improve clinical practice protocols, and many of his post-doctoral research papers have done just this. This clinical and research experience has also led to changes in how certain treatments are now taught at the University of Canberra, which shows that even a little old optometrist in the Central West of NSW can influence the world!
Cheers
Dr John
