"With experience, you get more confident. That’s the important thing. When you’re new, you don’t want to annoy people, or worry about how you will come across. But ultimately, it’s a clinical job, so we have to be comfortable and confident with what we’re doing," says Raina.⁠
⁠
We spoke to locum optometrist, Raina Malik, about her experience working as a locum and how locuming broadens her skills and knowledge across all aspects of the optometry profession. ⁠

Practitioners Alison, Sarah and Suzanne pick out vision correction solutions for a social media savvy content creator. Here's what they shared...

1️⃣ "We would look at our more creative collections, and particularly Albert I'mStein, a fun and fresh unisex collection, inspired by a collaboration of designers from around the world," said Alison Price.

2️⃣ "Something a bit edgy, a statement but in soft lines and soft tones, allowing for a change-up depending on the content being delivered. My chosen frame is from Tom Ford – perfectly stylish with comfort and aesthetics firmly in mind," said Sarah White.

3️⃣ "A social media content creator expresses their style and personality with what they post. So having something distinctive will leave a memorable impact on their audience. Tom Ford model ‘TF5948-B’ gives the statement look with its bold shape and colouring, enough to turn heads and wear with anything," said Suzanne Roberston.

“The Universal Credit system was supposed to be universal, but in Northern Ireland it wasn't,” said optometrist, Sam Baird.

Following an eight-year wait, those on Universal Credit in Northern Ireland, will now follow the same process as those in the rest of the UK to receive a free sight test.

Dispensing optician, William Stockdale, described the introduction of access to free sight tests for eligible Universal Credit recipients as “long overdue” adding that “it shouldn't have taken eight years to get to this stage, but it’s really good news that it’s here.”

Optometrist Deven Lakhani shares how, in 35 years of practice, nothing prepared him for the intense and humbling days he spent volunteering in the rural town of Jodhpur, India.

During his volunteering, Deven faced fast-paced clinical days, examining child after child. The experience tested his skills, pushed him outside his comfort zone, and offered valuable lessons in patient care and adaptability.

We caught up with Deepali Poojara FBDO, AOP Councillor and pre-registration optometrist at Specsavers Westway Cross, to ask what she wishes she’d known before starting CLiP.

Here's what she shared 👇

1. Confidence takes longer than you expect
You can understand the theory and still feel uncertain in clinic. That gap is normal. Clinical confidence develops through exposure, reflection, and time — not overnight

2. Judgement is as important as technical skill
Refraction and testing are important, but the real challenge is decision-making: when to change, when to refer, and when to monitor. Managing risk is a huge part of the role.

3. How you show up matters
Being approachable, reflective, and willing to ask questions builds trust with patients and colleagues alike. Professional behaviour and communication shape your reputation early on

If you’re preparing for CLiP, currently going through it, or supervising a student what stands out to you most from Deepali's reflections?
