When you had a really tough day...

And then you remember you have an amazing team who isn't only good at what they do...

But they're supportive enough to realise you need a little pick-me-up.

My heavy heart has been lifted.

And I'm filled with gratitude. šŸ˜Š

I wish all business owners were as lucky as I am.

Princesses, astronauts, fairies, and buskers...

Dropping the kids off at daycare during Book Week is like walking into a fairytale.

It's wonderful seeing initiatives like these to get children interested in stories, book characters, and reading.

But I get that reading isn't every child's favourite activity.

Still, it's important to ask why.

Skipping lines, losing their place, frowning while reading, headaches after homework...

They could be symptoms of a vision problem.

It turns reading into a battle.

And this could happen even if your child can see clearly.

Concerned about your child's reading?

Book a behavioural optometry assessment with us.

Before owning my own practice, many business owners told me the same thing:

Managing staff is the hardest part of owning a business.

Maybe thatā€™s true.

But it very much depends on your team.

Just last week, we had one dispenser who had an appointment.

And that same morning, our other dispenser called in sick.

Two fully booked optometrists, one fully booked vision therapistā€¦

And one staff member at the front desk.

It happened to be Zoe, our youngest team member.

The morning couldā€™ve been chaotic.

But Zoe handled it like a seasoned pro.

šŸ”¹ Welcoming patients
šŸ”¹ Pretesting
šŸ”¹ Dispensing
šŸ”¹ Phone calls
šŸ”¹ Emails
šŸ”¹ Quotes and payments

All of it, without missing a beat.

Yes, this shows sheā€™s been trained well.

But more so, it shows her grit. She steps up during challenging moments.

No complaints. No delays.

A morning that couldā€™ve been my biggest headache became one of my proudest moments.

Patients never even knew we were short staffed that morning.

And thatā€™s exactly the way we want it.

We hear some interesting stories. šŸ˜„What's the most creative reason you've given for why your glasses broke?

Devastating.

The brilliant Sophie Dwyer misses a crucial shot.

One sheā€™s taken many times before.

It goes to showā€¦

High-pressure situations disrupt even elite visual systems.

Hereā€™s what possibly happened to Sophie during that shot:

Normally, sheā€™s focused.

Her eyes fixed on one specific point just before she takes the shot.

Her visual attention is stable.

Her brain effortlessly coordinates movement, timing, and force based on the visual input.

But stress couldā€™ve changed her visual processing.

Perhaps her focus shiftedā€¦

From the ring to the defender, to other players on court.

Her attention shifted.

Her vision became less stable.

And her accuracy suffered.

Not because she couldnā€™t make the shot.

But because pressure interfered with the connection between vision and action.

At EyeSense, weā€™ve seen something similar in patients.

On a normal day, their vision is great.

But when the stakes are highā€¦

Exams

Work deadlines

Important matches

Their performance takes a hit.

Mistakes creep in.

Not because theyā€™re incapable.

But because pressure changes how the brain processes visual information.

Which is why itā€™s so important to understand how the brain and eyes function as a team.

Because success under pressure is about more than just skill.

Itā€™s about how effective you process visual information when it matters most.

Slow reading. Poor recall. Eye strain.

Some think itā€™s normal.

But it could be a sign that your vision isnā€™t functioning as it should.

Yes, you can see the words clearly.

But reading involves way more than just seeing the words.

Your eyes must flow across the page with ease.

If your eyes jump, you may:
šŸ”¹ Skip words or entire lines
šŸ”¹ Keep losing your place
šŸ”¹ Struggle to follow the story
šŸ”¹ Forget what youā€™ve just read
šŸ”¹ Reread sentences to understand them

The skill is called eye tracking

āœØāœØāœØ

And both your eyes should show teamwork.

They should focus on the same spot at the same time.

Itā€™s also known as eye teaming.

When your eyes are misaligned, your brain gets two different images.

Now your brain gets confused, so your brain may:
šŸ”¹ Ignore your one eye
šŸ”¹ Or force your eye muscles to work harder to maintain focus

So, you experience eye strain, headaches, and fatigue.

Especially at the end of the day.

āœØāœØāœØ

Then thereā€™s visual processing.

Your brain must interpret every letter.

Every word.

Every sentence.

Thereā€™s a lot to do in split seconds:
šŸ”¹ Recognise letters and words with accuracy
šŸ”¹ Understand the meaning
šŸ”¹ Recall information in the right sequence
šŸ”¹ Create mental images of what youā€™re reading

Are you an effective reader?

Or do you find reading frustrating and exhausting?

Book an eye assessment with our team.

And we may help you uncover whatā€™s really holding you back.

It's been 365 days...

Nobody could've prepared me for what it's like to own my own practice.

Late nights
Endless amounts of admin
Training new staff
Saying goodbye to old staff
Weekends spent at the practice
Checking my account balance far too often
So many meetings
And 1,001 other little details

But despite some setbacks, I'm so proud of where EyeSense Vision is today.

When I look back, I'm filled with gratitude for:

God's blessing and provision
An incredible and supportive team
Opportunities to expand my knowledge and experience
Onboarding amazing new staff
Expanding the services we offer
Loyal patients
New patients
Patients who've expressed sincere gratitude for our services
Old relationships that grew stronger
New relationships
And that my kids love spending time at the practice

This year was tougher than I anticipated.

But it was also more beautiful than I ever could've imagined.

Thank you for being part of the story.
