Envisioned





Vision is arguably the most precious gift of nature as it enables us to perceive and appreciate the beautiful things of life. Like; raindrops on roses, a Plainfield with those pretty little flowers dancing with the wind, and creeping crawling insects with colourful cuticles. How about the colorful shells and peacefulness of the early morning beach or river banks.

Vision enables us appreciate life. Its usefulness cannot be overemphasized.
However, all these beauty and tranquil won’t be fully enjoyed without vision enabled by the body organ, the eye.
Simply put, the eye is the organ of sight and vision. Irrespective of the simplicity of this definition, the eye is a complex world of its own which I am privileged to be able to delve into.
I, Adriana, am simply interested in everything relating to the world of the eyes, and I hope this interest of mine keeps you intrigued, interested and challenged as well, to discover your passion and interest in this amazing complexity of the world of the eyes.
This Blog will contribute to a lifetime of visual health and wellness, improving each person with the highest quality of vision care and quality of life that they can “Envision.” The visual needs, health, and wellness of each person will always be our priority. Everything we do shall communicate this to our audience.
Welcome to Adriana’s eyespot, stay glued!

WHO IS AN OPTOMETRIST?

                Well as you all know I am a student of Optometry in Abia State University and on gaining admission into the department of Optometry I thought an Optometrist was an Optician, so I would say its not new for someone to be ignorant about who an Optometrist is.         Optometrists are the primary health care practitioners of the eye and visual system who provide comprehensive eye and vision care, which includes; refraction and dispensing, detection/diagnosis and management of diseases in the eye and the rehabilitation of conditions of the visual system. This the definition adopted by The World Council Optometry and World Health Organisation. This definition includes professional terms and not everyone will still quite get who an Optometrist is, that is why I will try to the best of my ability to explain further.          An Optometrist being a primary health care practitioner of the eye...

Is Optometry worth it?

  When I tell people I am studying optometry, the next thing they ask me is “was it your first choice?”. Of course, it wasn’t my first choice, Medicine and Surgery was the initial plan and I wanted to specialize in ophthalmology but due to my low JAMB score of 206, it would have been impossible to have studied that in Nigeria, so I went for Optometry. In my first year, it wasn’t looking like Optometry was something serious because of courses I was offering Chemistry, Physics, and Biology. In my second year it seemed like the heat was turned on a little when I encountered Biochemistry and Microbiology. I don’t think I would forget the nights of trying study the 20 Amino acids and their chemical structures, it was such a hassle.   I finally fell in love with Optometry in my third year, I enjoyed reading because it felt I was making new discoveries. Ocular Anatomy, Ocular Pharmacology, General Pathology, Human Physiology, General Anatomy, Geometrical Optics, Physiological Optic...
