  • Tori

    OPTOMETRIST

    Tori graduated from Optometry with therapeutics in 2016 from Deakin Geelong. Born in the UK, living in Tasmania since she was 14, she moved back to Tassie as soon as she could. Tori enjoys meeting individual’s eyecare and eye health needs, and believes that one size does NOT fit all. Tori is happy to see all varieties of eye conditions and finds this variation helps keep her thinking outside the box and up to date on continued education. She has a particular interest in myopia (short sighted) control, as this can help prevent ocular health issues for individuals in the long term. She is enthusiastic about preventative eyecare management. Tori is active within the optometry community and has historically held positions on the Early Career Optometrist board, Optometry Tasmania board in addition to being the treasurer on the National Optometry Australia board. Outside of work Tori loves getting into the Tasmanian wilderness from hiking to swimming.

    Poppy has a keen interest in fashion and is always up to date with the latest trends and styles, so she is always ready to help you find your next fabulous frame. When she isn’t at Look of Australia she is probably on stage acting or singing, or perhaps volunteering at Bonorong wildlife sanctuary. Poppy loves glasses that are unique shapes and bright colours, so it makes sense that her favourite glasses brands include Albert I’mstein and Theo eyewear.
