Ivan R Cammack Optometrist up for top prize

An independent optician with practices in Chinnor, Thame and Wendover has been nominated for a national award for its dry eye clinics. Ivan R Cammack Optometrist is one of only five candidates to reach the final stages of the Dry Eye Award category at the 2013 Optician Awards. The winner will be announced at an exclusive awards ceremony on 13th April.

The Optician Awards judges were looking for nominees that had taken on the diagnosis and management of dry eye, a growing problem for contact lens and spectacle wearers. Ivan R Cammack Optometrist was noted for acquiring the relevant skills to offer the service of dry eye clinics and encouraging patients to attend and benefit from it.

Specialist dry eye clinics were first set up in all three practices in November 2011. Patients complete a comprehensive dry eye questionnaire and are then given a thorough dry eye consultation to determine the specific causes of symptoms. Patients then attend a series of reviews as part of an ongoing treatment plan.

“The Optician Awards celebrate the best in the industry and we are thrilled to have made it to the nominations stage in such a competitive category,” said Ivan Cammack, practice owner and Optometrist. “We are offering some fantastic eye care in Chinnor, Thame and Wendover and it’s great to be recognised on a national scale for our dry eye clinics.”
