Supporting collaborative eye care through shared knowledge.
Working alongside optometrists to support shared care pathways.
Providing education and resources to support ongoing professional development.
Maintaining clear communication before, during and after referral.
At Anderson Eye Care, we believe strong relationships between optometrists and ophthalmologists play an important role in delivering the best outcomes for patients.
Eye care is continually evolving, and ongoing learning is essential to maintaining confidence in clinical decision-making.
Our aim is to provide a trusted space where optometrists can access practical, evidence-informed resources, explore clinical topics and strengthen collaborative pathways between primary and specialist eye care. Whether you are looking for CPD learning, referral guidance or practical resources for your practice, this hub has been designed to support your professional development.
Bringing clinical experience into everyday practice
Education is most valuable when it can be applied to real clinical situations. The hub brings together insights from ophthalmic practice with practical education designed to support optometrists and other eye care professionals in their day-to-day work.
Our approach is centred on sharing knowledge, encouraging open clinical discussion and strengthening the relationship between community and specialist eye care.
Whether you’re looking to refresh your knowledge, explore a particular clinical topic or better understand when referral may be appropriate, our aim is to provide information that is relevant, practical and grounded in clinical experience.
