Public Eye Education
Services
As we consider that prevention is
highly important in eye health, we take pleasure
in giving talks to groups of people who
are interested in hearing about eyecare issues.
The talks are not only aimed at informing people
about the types of treatments available for
particular eye conditions, but most importantly,
are aimed at increasing a person's awareness of
the important causative factors involved
in eye health problems. This would be essential
if one hopes to prevent eye problems and
maintain good vision and healthy eyes.
Any private or government organisations who
are interested in arranging a talk on eyecare
issues to be given by Kon Zagoritis (optometrist)
are welcome to contact us at the above practice
addresses and telephone numbers. The list of
issues which can be addressed include:
- Eye safety and the importance of
wearing sunglasses, goggles etc
- Visual hygiene (especially directed
at the proper use of the eyes in school children)
- Computers and eyestrain in the modern-day
office
- Development of vision in infants
- General Talk on Preventive Eye
Health
- Eye health problems in the elderly and
their causes
- External eye inflammations and
chronic eye irritation
- General health and its effects on eye
health, e.g. in diabetes, arthritis etc.
