Awards : Awarded Optometrists Association Australia (QLD & NT Division) Clinical Excellence Award / Awarded Clinical Equipment Prize, for best performance by a student in clinical optometry
Having been in the industry since 1999, Fernando has gained a vast knowledge of general optometric care and specialized fields. Being one of the first therapeutically qualified optometrists in the NSW, he is able to treat conditions such as eye infections, foreign body removal, glaucoma and allergies. Striving to be as up to date with education as possible, Fernando regularly attends lectures at educational institutions and conferences both in Australia and overseas. He has also given several lectures and supervised clinical students both in the optometric and medical fields.
Fernando recently completed all the post-graduate units of Behavioural Optometry training offered through the American OPTOMETRIC EXTENSION PROGRAM. This has taught him that vision is not just about the eye . It is more about how the eyes work together, how the eyes work with the rest of the body, and how the brain puts all that information together.
Being first established in 1977, Fernando Lamas purchased this independent practice in February 2005. At first with a partner and then in 2008 solely owned, Fernando has been honoured and proud to serve the Northern Rivers Community ever since.
“ I love this area and the people who live here. My favourite time of year in the Northern Rivers, is Autumn. The clear, crisp mornings and the gorgeous blue skies. The Culture and open space only adds to my love for this area.”
