Polycoria is a rare ocular condition in which the eye has multiple pupils. It can be either congenital or acquired, possibly through an injury or some other way. In true polycoria, each pupil can function independently, reacting to light, while false polycoria appears to have multiple pupils but only one reacts to light.
Some people with polycoria can have reduced vision, but others have no issues at all.

Jaguar frames are one of our classic men's ranges. Very lightweight and durable, the Jaguar range is available in acetate and metal frames with a wide range of shapes, sizes and colours. Unfortunately, they don't come in British racing green or have a V12 engine, but I can say they will probably be the cheapest Jaguar you ever buy, and they will have much less maintenance than their automobile namesake.
Come and see our Jaguar frames at 368 Main Road, Glenorchy. Visiting hours are between 9am - 5.30pm Monday to Friday.

We often get asked how old a child needs to be before an eye test can be done. The truth is, it can be done from birth. If you have any concerns, if baby's eyes are turning or there is a family history of congenital eye diseases, our optometrists are ready, willing and able to see your little one.
If you are not particularly concerned, testing can wait a year or so, but regular checks are recommended for children just as much as for adults. Some vision issues are picked up when a child goes to school, but since 80% of learning comes through the eyes, give them a headstart and have their eyes tested before they start school. The examination cost is bulk billed to Medicare, so there are no out-of-pocket costs to you.
Call in to 368 Main Road, Glenorchy to make an appointment, or ring us on 62729407, or make an appointment online at https://glenorchyeyecare.com.au/

The human eye is one of the most complex organs in the body. Working together with the brain, it can rapidly adjust to changing light, detect motion, distinguish millions of colors, and process an enormous amount of visual information every second.

Light enters through the cornea and pupil before being focused by the lens. It then passes through the vitreous humor and reaches the retina, where specialized cells convert light into electrical signals. Those signals travel through the optic nerve to the brain, which transforms them into the images you see every day.

Despite centuries of advances in photography and imaging technology, the human visual system remains an extraordinary example of biological engineering.

The human eye sees at 576 mega-pixels. The best camera currently available takes photos of 400 mega-pixels. The most expensive camera out there does not perform as well as the human eye, so taking care of your eyes should be highest on your To Do list. Have regular eye check-ups, limit the amount of time you spend on phones, computers and other screens, and eat a good diet to help keep your eyes healthy for as long as possible.

School holidays are a great time to get your children's eyes checked. Maybe they've mentioned having trouble to see the smart/white board (do they still have white boards? Back in my day it was a blackboard!).
We have three optometrists ready and willing to carry out an eye test on any and every child. Ring us on 62729407 or book online at https://glenorchyeyecare.com.au/
