I graduated with honours from the University of Wales, UK in 1986, and have been a member of the College of Optometrists since 1988. I’m therapeutically registered in the treatment of anterior eye conditions and glaucoma, and my optometry career has taken me to Europe, Africa and now Australia. I am experienced in low vision optometry and contact lens fitting, and I also work with the Brien Holden Foundation providing eyecare for indigenous Australians. I am the inventor of WolfChart, an open-source eyechart that works in an internet browser. It is used all over Australia and in countries where Latin script is not recognised – there are versions in Chinese, Arabic and Hebrew. Community involvement is important to me and so is sustainability – so Dresden is a great fit. As a home brewer, I love wearing frames that are made from recycled beer keg caps!
