At 1001 Optometry, we believe that true well-being extends beyond physical health—it includes mental and emotional wellness. On this #RUOkay , we encourage everyone to pause and ask the important question: "Are you okay?" In both our personal and professional lives, it’s easy to overlook the signs that someone may be struggling. Mental health challenges are often invisible, yet they can affect overall well-being, including eye health. Stress, anxiety, and fatigue can manifest as headaches, eye strain, and blurred vision, impacting daily life and work. Just as we remind our customers to schedule regular eye tests, it’s just as important to check in on the mental health of those around us. A simple conversation can provide the support someone needs to feel heard or seek help. At 1001 Optometry, we’re dedicated to the well-being of our community—not just through eye care, but by fostering a supportive and compassionate environment. Let’s take a step today toward creating a culture of care and connection. Clear vision is about more than what we see—it’s about how we engage with the world and each other. #1001optometry #1001optical #detailsarebeautiful #RUOkay

As Head of Optometry at 1001 Optometry, my role is to support optometrists in our team so that they can deliver the best possible eyecare to their patients. This is a role of support, education and expanding our optometry team's knowledge base about best practice for assisting in all aspects of patient care. I also currently serve as the President of Optometry Australia, the peak body that represents optometrists across Australia to represent the profession and all aspects of helping the profession to deliver the eyecare services provided to the community. Optometry is a compassionate profession, focusing on helping the patients with early detection to protect and save our patient's sight, and deliver practical solutions to help with their quality of life by delivering the best vision and healthcare possible. I fell into optometry because I love that it allows me to help people live their lives to the fullest and I can play a part in helping my patients and my colleagues. 2.

I have had the pleasure of mentoring Anica at Bondi. Patients in our Eastgardens team have had really positive things to say about being looked after by Anica. Anica is a real rising star in optometry and at 1001 Optometry. 3. 𝐋𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐥𝐲, 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐎𝐩𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐲?

Meet Francis Chen ! Our Optometrist at 1001 Optometry, Chatswood Chase! 1. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐮𝐞 𝐚 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐎𝐩𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐲, 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐎𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲: My interest in optometry began with a fascination for the eye's intricate workings and its connection to overall health. The potential of Orthokeratology to improve patients' lives by providing clear vision without daytime glasses or contacts captivated me, driving my decision to specialize in this area. 2. 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐎𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐢𝐭 𝐛𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬: Orthokeratology uses specially designed rigid gas permeable lenses worn overnight to gently reshape the cornea. This process provides clear daytime vision without corrective lenses and can slow myopia progression in children. It offers a significant advantage for patients of all ages who find daytime contacts uncomfortable or dislike glasses, and it can help children manage myopia, potentially reducing their need for stronger glasses in the future. 3. 𝐂𝐚𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐞𝐲𝐞 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐞𝐲𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡: Regular eye exams are crucial for maintaining good eye health and can detect early signs of diseases like glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration. Early detection allows for more effective treatment. Eye exams can also identify general health issues like diabetes and high blood pressure. Scheduling regular eye tests is an investment in your overall well-being and future health. 4. 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐎𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐎𝐩𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐰𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐨𝐥𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠: The future of Orthokeratology and Optometry is promising. Advancements in lens materials and designs will enhance patient comfort and myopia management. Optometry will increasingly focus on preventative eye care, addressing digital eye strain and promoting healthy eye habits. Improved diagnostic and treatment technologies, combined with patient education and preventative strategies, will significantly enhance vision and overall eye health. #1001Optical #1001Optometry #eyewear #eyetest #optometrist

Meet Dylan Oblein ! Our new National Sales Manager at 1001 Optometry. 𝟭.𝗧𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘂𝘀 𝗮 𝗯𝗶𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲: My most recent role before joining 1001 Optometry was with Eyecare Plus, as the National Business Development Manager, based in Rosebery. Before that role I have been fortunate enough to have had working experience as a Regional Manager across several different Optometry Businesses here in Australia including OPSM/Laubman & Pank, George & Matilda and Device Technologies. I have also been lucky enough in the past to have had the experience of owning 2x Specsavers franchises. I am looking forward to bringing my experience & learnings and applying these to my role here with 1001 Optometry as National Sales Manager. 𝟮. 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗿𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝟭𝟬𝟬𝟭 𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀: My role here at 1001 Optometry is quite exciting in terms of what I am responsible for and is one of the major reasons why I joined the business. As the role title suggests, I am responsible for all things operations-wise in the business. The other major component of my role is coaching & mentoring our teams in the field to deliver the best service possible, with an emphasis on elevated premium delivery. This aligns with our rebrand as a company from 1001 Optical to 1001 Optometry. 𝟯. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻 𝟭𝟬𝟬𝟭 𝗢𝗽𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗿𝘆: Great question & one that I am proud to answer. Quite a few reasons why I joined the business, the first one though would be the great culture here in the business. Secondly, it would be the amazing Eyewear collections we carry; Who wouldn't get excited about working with such an amazing plethora of brands right from 1001 Optometry's exclusive Private Collection to the luxury brands. Here at 1001 Optometry, we value & drive premium Eyecare/Eyewear as well as ensuring we deliver a tailor-made and professional experience, something I align with personally. At 1001 Optometry we offer a range of products and services, for all budgets, styles and needs. One of the other main reasons came down to how much the CEO (James Lee) & Optometry/Retail Director (Edward Lee) valued my skill set & wanted me to be part of their organisation in a senior role. Also, the current company rebrand was an attractive project to be able to be part of, I have certainly joined at the right time, exciting times ahead. #1001Optical #1001Optometry #eyewear #eyetest #optometrist

Are you spending more time in front of screens these days? Whether it's for work or leisure, our modern lifestyles often involve prolonged exposure to digital devices. But did you know that the blue light emitted by these screens could be affecting your sleep and overall health? Here are 4 eye-opening facts about blue light and its impact: Blue Light & Sleep: Blue light deceives your brain into believing it's daytime, leading to difficulties in falling asleep and achieving restful sleep. Eye Strain & Fatigue: Ensure the well-being of your eyes by incorporating regular breaks and contemplating the use of blue light-blocking glasses, particularly during extended periods of screen time, to prevent eye strain and fatigue. Health Risks: Research indicates that extended exposure to blue light might lead to digital eye strain and potentially elevate the likelihood of developing eye conditions such as Age-related Macular Degeneration. Blue Light Migraines: Blue light exposure can act as a trigger for individuals susceptible to migraines. Research indicates that the intense blue light emitted by screens may worsen migraine symptoms or even initiate a migraine attack in those prone to this condition. Prioritizing your eye health and well-being is essential, and at 1001 Optometry, we're here to support you every step of the way.
