Darrell Baker

Optometrist at Bullseye Optometry Clinic Leeming

Specialities: Optometrist Language: English Gender: Male

Darrell’s fascination with the eyeball and vision began after sitting in and observing his mother’s eye examinations when he was growing up. He graduated in Johannesburg in 1986 and worked in Zimbabwe, South Africa and the UK before migrating to Australia in 1999 where he worked as a partner in an independent practice for 12 years. Meeting people, being able to make a positive impact on a person’s quality of life, and educating patients about vision is what Darrell loves most about his job. Darrell has a keen interest in contact lens fitting and management of neurological disorders. He has completed a post-graduate qualification in the management of neuro-ophthalmic disorders and a graduate certificate in ocular therapeutics. He regularly presents to local physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and other health care professionals about vision’s role in a person’s treatment and recovery. Darrell is currently the President of the national board of Optometry Australia. If he’s not looking at or thinking about eyeballs, Darrell is likely playing sport or eyeing off (pun intended) another guitar to add to his collection! ...

The best thing about being an optometrist? For Rob, it’s the ability to make a tangible difference in people’s everyday lives and the opportunity to meet so many new people each day.

Before optometry, Rob completed a bachelor of science majoring in neuroscience. Rob is particularly interested in how traumatic brain injuries and degenerative disorders can affect vision and how he can provide optometric care in these cases.
