We would like to give a huge thank you to Sukanya Iyer and Mandy Huynh for presenting at our ‘Paediatric Pearls: Eye Testing & Visual Perception Essentials‘ webinar tonight.
Sukanya graduated from the University of New South Wales in 2019 with a Bachelor of Vision Science and a Master of Clinical Optometry. She began her career in 2020 in Sydney’s Hills District, gaining valuable experience in a busy metropolitan setting before relocating to Canberra in 2022. After serving as Managing Optometrist for a busy corporate practice, Suki transitioned to a dual role, working alongside a local ophthalmologist at Clarity Eye Surgeons and providing full scope independent eye care at Evolve Optometry in Gungahlin.
Mandy Huynh (they/them) graduated from the UNSW with a Bachelor of Vision Science and a Master of Clinical Optometry in 2019. They began their career focusing on myopia management and orthokeratology, where they developed a growing passion for paediatric care and the long-term impact they could make in children’s lives. Mandy later expanded their expertise in behavioural/developmental optometry, deepening their interest in understanding how vision affects learning, development, and quality of life. Today, Mandy is a proud practice owner at Eye Definition Optometrists in Wolli Creek, where they work alongside Sheila Lam to bring high quality care in their respective optometric passions.
We hope this talk has been informative for all attendees and that it will strengthen your confidence with assessment, diagnosis and management of eye conditions, particularly accommodative and binocular disorders, in paediatric patients.
