Optometrist

Akaansha completed her Bachelor Of Vision Science and Masters of Optometry at Deakin University in Melbourne. Her journey into the world of Optometry started with her first pair of spectacles as a 13 year old and subsequent wearing of contact lenses later on. So regular visits to the Optometrist led to an  interest in the profession she is in today.  She has a special interest in the management of dry eyes and fitting specialty contact lenses such as minisclerals. She travelled and completed her placements in Broken Hill and the Northern Territory.  Besides all things eye health, she loves a good morning run, a perfectly made cup of coffee and a good book. She recently took a big leap and became the proud mum of her new cat, 3 month old Nori.

Working for a private practice has been both stimutating and challenging for Matt. He feels lucky to be working at Wodonga Eyecare, where the oppitunity for personal developement is second to none, and the staff are fantantic (no really!). Building a long term repport with our many patients has been particulary rewarding.
