Most Australians polled (90%) say that sight is their most valued sense.
Around 90% of all blindness and vision impairment in Australia is preventable or treatable if detected early.

The same logic applies to getting our cars serviced regularly - the mechanic's advanced warning hopefully heads of an expensive repair bill if left untreated.

As August draws to a close - a reflective moment…

What's your favourite EKKA (Royal Queensland Show) memory - if you've ever visited. Let me kick it off with a couple of memories: The Train ride in, winning a gigantic stuffed toy for Lisa, and the FREE sample bags that were on offer (this is definitely showing my age).

Lens Tech Talk: Transition vs. Photochromic – Is there a difference?
An excellent question we get asked at Eyes at Narangba!
Here is the quick breakdown:
Photochromic: is the general name for the amazing technology. It describes lenses that change from clear to dark when exposed to UV or visible light. This amazing science dates back to the 1960s!
Transitions: is a famous brand name that makes photochromic lenses. Think of it like calling every tissue a Kleenex!

Some of the major contenders
As an Independent Optometry Practice, we aren't locked into just one brand or lens manufacturer. We source the absolute best light-adaptive lenses from the best performing lens crafters around the world:
Sensity 2 / Fast / Dark: Engineered by Hoya
ColorMatic X / Dark: Crafted by Rodenstock
Silque™: Created by CR Surfacing

Why does this matter to you?
We choose your lens manufacturer based entirely on your unique lifestyle! Every brand handles has its own stand out feature(s). We match the exact right technology to your specific daily needs.
Check out the video below to see how Hoya's Sensity lenses perform in action!

Red green colour vision deficiency is possibly the most common version and quite often goes unnoticed.
Unfortunately people do not always realise they see colour differently, because it's always appeared that way. It can become more obvious when performing tasks like reading colour-coded charts, recognising traffic lights at a distance, or choosing matching clothes. A screening test at your next eye exam can quickly show what type and severity you have. One more reason to get your eyes checked.

The 150 year old mystery of John Dalton's Eyes, involving stockings, blue vitreous humour (inner-eye-ball-fluid), donated eyes, and DNA.
In 1794, atomic pioneer John Dalton realized he saw colours differently after buying his mother bright red stockings that he thought were blue.
He believed the fluid in his eyes was tinted blue, filtering out red light. To prove it, he left his eyes to science. But when he died in 1844, his doctor dissected them and found the fluid was completely clear.
The real answer took another 150 years. In 1995, scientists extracted DNA from Dalton’s preserved retinal tissue.

The verdict?
He was a deuteranope, he completely lacked the gene for green-sensitive photopigments. To Dalton, red sealing wax and green leaves both looked like a muted olive-brown.

Did you know colour vision differences often run in families?
The most common type (red–green) is usually passed down on the X chromosome. Because men have one X, they’re more likely to be affected. Women have two X chromosomes, so they’re less likely to have a strong colour vision problem, but they can still carry, and sometimes notice milder changes in how they see colour.

Do you have a relative with colour blindness? It’s a good idea to have an eye exam and let your optometrist know when they ask about medical history.
