My Story

Jacinda has a special interest in myopia control, having personally had success with multifocal soft contact lenses and orthokeratology in controlling her own myopia. She is now a member of the Orthokeratology Society of Oceania and occasionally runs workshops and lectures on the topic. Throughout her years at RLA, she has also grown to love keratoconic, pediatric, and other complex custom lens fitting. In addition to seeing her own patients, Jacinda regularly hosts students and optometrists alike and is passionate about educating her colleagues on more complex custom lens fitting.

Jacinda completed a Bachelor of Science in 2017, majoring in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, and went on to graduate with a Doctor of Optometry in 2021. During her four-year post-graduate degree, she completed placements in public, corporate, independent, and ophthalmology settings, and decided independent optometry is where she could best utilize her skills and make the most difference.

On the personal side, Jacinda enjoys baking sweets, hiking, and live music, and you will catch her at the Australian Open every year!
