Mary
BMedSc(Visc), MOptom, OcTher
Mary joined the iSight team in June 2024. Mary is a therapeutically endorsed optometrist, having graduated in 2023 from Flinders University with a Bachelor of Medical Science (Vision Science), Master of Optometry. During her studies she also worked within ophthalmology clinics as an ophthalmic technician.
In her role, Mary works closely with Dr. Taranath, assisting with patient examinations and in-room procedures. She is also fully equipped to manage a wide range of patients independently, offering her expertise to those who do not require specialised ophthalmological care.
Mary is available to see both children and adults, and no referral is required to schedule an appointment. She is eager to help individuals with a range of needs, whether it’s a routine eye check-up, urgent concerns, or patients seeking a second opinion. She has particular interests in myopia control, diabetic eye disease screening, glaucoma co-management and anterior ocular therapeutics including foreign bodies and infections.
Through her close collaboration with Dr. Taranath, Mary has had the opportunity to work on a variety of complex cases, further refining her ability to handle more challenging cases. However, should she need further guidance, she has the benefit of consulting directly with Dr. Taranath, ensuring every patient receives the most informed and comprehensive care possible.
When Mary is not working at iSight, she is assisting with research projects at Flinders University, with a current focus on children’s eye screening in schools.
