CFEH has two roles currently being advertised.  If you have a degree in vision science, optometry or a similar discipline, you may be interested in joining us as a technician, or if you are a customer-service super-star, our Client Services position may be right for you.

The mission of CFEH has always been to reduce preventable blindness and vision loss within our community through the early detection of eye disease.  To ensure the longevity of our organisation, and ensure we are able to care for the most vulnerable in our community, we have introduced some new eligibility criteria.

Examining change in drusen size, area and/or volume over time is fundamental to monitoring disease progression and managing patients with AMD. However assessment of longitudinal change in clinical practice is currently limited to a single commercial tool (such as Cirrus OCT) or manual inspection by clinicians.

Online patient education materials about Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) can help patients improve their understanding of disease prognosis, risk factors and eye assessment schedule requirements.

Centre for Eye Health is currently undergoing a strategic review to redefine our approach to the early detection of preventable blindness, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter for our organisation.

CFEH clinicians and researchers are excited to have been invited to present on several topics at this years American Academy of Optometry virtual conference.

A recently published paper evaluates the Centre for Eye Health’s integrated approach to care which sees optometrists, ophthalmologists, general practitioners and endocrinologists working in partnership toward a common goal – to identify those at risk of vision loss and to catch it early so as to manage and treat it before they lose vision in the first place.
