23.01.2022 Being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes can be overwhelming. There is a lot to learn. Some people can be unsure of where to turn. Sometimes the best information an...d support can come from the experiences of other people. That’s why we’ve launched 'If I Had Known' a campaign which gives a voice to real Australians impacted by type 2 diabetes to share their experiences about what they wished they’d known when they were first diagnosed This week we will be talking to Clinical Psychologist and Deputy Director of The Australian Centre of Behavioural Research in Diabetes, Dr Christel Hendriecks. Dr Hendrieckx and Renza will be discussing many of the challenges people living with type 2 diabetes face that may prevent them from seeking the support they need. Do you have a question for the experts? Comment below or send us a private message and we'll make sure it gets discussed. See you all tomorrow!

20.01.2022 *DO I NEED A LOW VISION ASSESSMENT??* Top 5 questions and answers 1. Is my vision bad enough.....? If you are having trouble managing every day tasks with you...r glasses - then visual aids such as magnifiers could make a huge improvement in your visual function 2. How much will it cost me......? I have many low cost effective magnifiers available in my range that can help. Yes, there are expensive, high tech magnifiers as well. My aim is to recommend a device that will suit your needs and your budget. In fact - you may already have devices that can help you. Call me so we can chat about your needs 3. Will my eye doctor will refer me.......? Your eye doctors’ primary role is to look after the health of your eyes from a medical perspective. It is unlikely they have specialised equipment to demonstrate to you to that will help with your vision loss. My extensive range of equipment has been selected to offer quality and value for money 4. I can manage ok at the moment, but what about the future.....? If you have not read a newspaper for quite a while, need help to read your mail, and have lost a bit of confidence with everyday tasks - you may find a low vision assessment can give you back your independence and the freedom to live life to the fullest. It can be helpful and reassuring to learn about things that can help you today, and plan for your future 5. Will I be wasting your time ......? You will not be wasting my time. I absolutely love assisting people with vision problems - helping to find solutions - so they can continue to do the things they love to do. Life is too short! Local, professional and friendly service ... Call me to request a service today - no referral is necessary Carmel Harris Orthoptist 0428 654 190

06.01.2022 #wellnessWednesday Do you have vision loss and have you experienced seeing phantom images of coloured patterns, people or animals, plants or trees? This might ...be Charles Bonnet Syndrome. Charles Bonnet Syndrome (or CBS for short) is a term used to describe the situation where mentally healthy people with significant vision loss have vivid, complex, recurrent visual hallucinations. The hallucinations also often fit into the person’s surroundings. They can also be quite bizarre, such as dragons or fairies, or have unusually vivid colours. The hallucinations may come and go and will often stop altogether within a year to eighteen months. In some people, hallucinations may continue for many years and be a source of frustration. If you are concerned, speak to your eye health professional or call us on 1800 111 709. https://bit.ly/31HCWvY
